Traffic resumes on Route 4 after ultra-Orthodox protest; 13 arrested
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThirteen people are under arrest as police break up a protest by haredi demonstrators that brought a major highway in central Israel to a standstill Thursday.
Route 4 was briefly stopped in both directions by some 300 ultra-Orthodox men who protested, outside the Hadarim Prison, the incarceration of a member of their community who allegedly assaulted a police officer during an arrest.
The highway is reopened.
