Pamphlets in Jerusalem urge shunning of Haredi soldiers
A pamphlet distributed in the streets of Haredi neighborhoods in Jerusalem names members of the community who are serving in the IDF and calls on residents to shun them.
The pamphlet contains the photos of ultra-Orthodox soldiers from the neighborhood who serve in the Givati infantry brigade.
Many Haredi neighborhoods in the capital have seen protests against growing Haredi enlistment in the army.
