Female Israeli soldiers rescued after being chased by ultra-Orthodox men
Several female Israeli soldiers were rescued after being chased by a group of ultra-Orthodox men in Jerusalem on Thursday afternoon. The incident took place near a religious seminary in the ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Mea Shearim.
According to eyewitnesses, the soldiers, who were on leave and wearing civilian clothes, were verbally harassed and followed by the group of ultra-Orthodox men. The situation escalated when the men began to shout and demand the women leave the area, considering their presence provocative in the religious neighborhood.
The Israeli police were alerted to the scene and swiftly arrived to disperse the crowd and escort the female soldiers to safety. No injuries were reported during the incident.
The ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem has a history of tension with the Israeli military, with some sectors opposing military service on religious grounds. They argue that the presence of female soldiers in their neighborhood goes against their strict interpretation of modesty and tradition.
On the other hand, military officials have defended the right of female soldiers to move freely in public spaces and condemned the actions of the ultra-Orthodox men as harassment and a violation of the soldiers’ rights.
The incident has reignited the debate around the role of women in the Israeli military and the tensions that exist between religious communities and the state regarding issues of gender and public presence.
