Female Israeli soldiers rescued after being chased by ultra-Orthodox men
Three female Israeli soldiers were rescued after being chased by a group of ultra-Orthodox men in Jerusalem on Monday afternoon. The incident took place near Mea Shearim, a neighborhood known for its large ultra-Orthodox community.
According to the police report, the soldiers were in the area as part of a navigation exercise when they were confronted by a group of men who demanded that they leave immediately. The situation escalated quickly, with the men allegedly chasing the soldiers through the neighborhood.
The soldiers managed to find refuge in a local store, where they called for help. The police arrived at the scene and escorted the soldiers to safety. No injuries were reported during the incident.
The ultra-Orthodox community in Mea Shearim has a history of tensions with the Israeli military, often objecting to the presence of soldiers in their neighborhood due to religious beliefs that conflict with serving in the army.
The ultra-Orthodox community leaders have not yet commented on the incident, but a spokesperson for the group stated that they are committed to maintaining the sanctity of their neighborhood and preserving their way of life.
The Israeli military has reaffirmed its commitment to conducting training exercises in all parts of the country, including areas with large ultra-Orthodox populations. They have also stated that they will work with local authorities to ensure the safety of their personnel.
Overall, the incident highlights the ongoing tensions between the Israeli military and some segments of the ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem.
