The ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party rails against the “wicked” coalition after a Knesset committee approved a bill to overhaul kosher certification, sending it on for the final votes it must pass to become law.

In a statement, UTJ denounces the bill as a “complete moral collapse” and accuses the coalition of acting against “tradition and those who observe kashrut in Israel.”
