Female reporters post scenes of violence toward them by ultra-Orthodox protesters

Several female journalists report violence toward them at the scene of extremist ultra-Orthodox protests against IDF recruitment outside the Tel Hashomer base.

Merav Sever of Israel Hayom and Rotem Golan of the Knesset Channel say bottles were thrown at them and they were berated with chants that included “shiksa.”

Golan says someone knocked her phone to the ground, with no reaction from cops against the attacker. She adds water, yogurt and even horse feces has been hurled at her.

Police later that three have been arrested at the rally, which has been declared illegal.
