Ynet – Hundreds of commanders, soldiers, and alumni of the Netzah Yehuda Battalion – a haredi unit in the IDF‘s Kfir Brigade – convened Tuesday night for a ceremony marking the fifteenth anniversary of the unit’s inception.
As discussions continue in a Knesset committee over a new draft law that aims to enlist more haredi men to the military, Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon delivered a speech at the event warning against punishing young haredi men who do not enlist in the army.
