Details

According to the decision of the Israeli Supreme Court, students of ultra-Orthodox faith will also be required to serve in the army in the future.

An expanded panel of nine judges of the High Court on Tuesday ordered the full recruitment of haredims (the name of various ultra – Orthodox Jewish communities-ed.) to the IDF and the freezing of all funds for institutions that do not comply with the requirements, starting on April 1.

The publication points out that this is an amazing decision that can even lead to a change in the political landscape. The court's decision is seen as a setback for prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing government, which also includes right-wing believers.

Currently, there is no legal framework that allows you to distinguish between students and conscripts, respectively, the state does not have the authority to order them to completely avoid conscription
