Hundreds of Breslov children pulled from school to protest draft evader arrests at TLV airport
Footage circulating on social media appears to show a teacher reading out the names of the arrested draft dodgers, having the students repeat each one after him.
At TLV airport, hundreds of Breslov children were evacuated from their schools to participate in a protest against draft evader arrests, according to KAN News on Monday. Despite an Education Ministry directive prohibiting such actions during school hours, school administrators reportedly organized the students' involvement through buses.
The Haredi community has been urged to impose strict penalties against this practice. The Education Ministry emphasized that students should not be used in political demonstrations, and school staff are not allowed to lead or organize such events. Footage shows a teacher reading out the names of the arrested evaders, who then recited them.
This protest follows a similar demonstration last week in Jerusalem and Highway 4, where four protesters were arrested, including one in Jerusalem and three assaulting officers on Highway 4.
