Ultra-Orthodox Jews Forced to Serve in IDF? 7,000 to Fight for Israel After Fierce Backlash &Protest
In a controversial move that has sparked fierce protests and political backlash, Israel's Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant, approved the issuance of 7,000 military draft orders for Ultra-Orthodox Jews (Haredim).
This decision marks a significant shift in Israel's long-standing policy of exempting religious students from military service, and has led to heated debates over the role of religion in national defense.
With the country already in the midst of conflict, this move comes amid growing pressure from Israel's secular majority and tensions with the Ultra-Orthodox political parties.

In a significant escalation, Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed a major missile strike against Israel's primary international gateway, Ben Gurion Airport. Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree announced that a newly unveiled missile, named "Palestine-2," was launched towards Tel Aviv, alleging it successfully halted all air traffic and caused widespread panic. The group, officially known as Ansarallah, declared the attack was an act of solidarity with the Palestinian people and the armed resistance in Gaza, vowing that such strikes will persist until Israel's military offensive and blockade on the territory come to an end.
However, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have presented a conflicting account. According to Israeli military sources, the incoming missile was successfully tracked and intercepted by its advanced air defense systems. While air raid sirens were activated in several regions across Israel as a precautionary measure, the IDF maintains that the threat was neutralized before it could impact the airport's infrastructure or cause any casualties.
The incident has drawn a sharp response from Tel Aviv. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a stern warning to Yemen, threatening "dire consequences" similar to those faced by Tehran if the Houthi attacks continue. This latest strike is part of a sustained campaign by the Houthis, who have reportedly launched over 50 missiles and drones towards Israel since the conflict in Gaza intensified, repeatedly attempting to target critical Israeli infrastructure like Ben Gurion Airport.
