Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePolice arrest three Haredi protesters on suspicion of rioting and attacking police officers in Jerusalem, as anti-draft demonstrations continue to rock the capital.
Many of the participants “attacked officers, threw objects and refused to obey the instructions of forces at the scene,” police say in a statement.
Police are employing riot control methods including stun grenades and horses to break up the stormy demonstrations throughout the city.
The demonstrations are taking place after the extremist Jerusalem Faction movement called on its followers to turn out nationwide in protest of police’s intention to transfer 19 Haredi draft dodgers to IDF custody.
