Report: Senior Haredi rabbis fume over police okaying of mass left-wing protest while barring prayer
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleChannel 13 reports that senior ultra-Orthodox officials are fuming over the police’s decision to allow a mass left-wing protest of some 2,000 people against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu yesterday all while law enforcement continues to aggressively enforce against any and all group prayer as stipulated by the government’s coronavirus guidelines.
Since yesterday’s protest, senior Haredi rabbis have begun pressing government officials to allow prayer to be held in limited fashion.
They’re also planning on holding protests twice a day in Bnei Brak during which they intend to pray, Channel 13 reports.
