The demonstration is in response to the continuous arrest of ultra-Orthodox men (Haredi) to dodge the project and refuse to serve in the FDI.
The members of the Jerusalem faction would have planned a massive demonstration for the coming week near Ben Gurion airport to close the airport for several hours, according to publications on social networks seen by Israeli police.
The demonstration is in response to the continuous arrest of ultra-Orthodox men (Haredi) to dodge the project and refuse to serve in the FDI.
If the demonstrations managed to close the airport, this would cause major economic damage to the country as well as to the tens of thousands of people who visit the airport every day, especially during the summer season loaded and ahead of the Holy High days.

Sort through false messages
Police sources have been told Maariv That all messages and publications on social networks are monitored by the police. In addition, if the demonstration seems imminent, the police will deploy police to arrest him.
Police noted that some of the social media publications seemed to be false and were only downloaded for Stoke Furor and create a speech. However, other positions were authentic, so the police screened the false and real to respond accordingly.
The staff of the Jerusalem Post contributed to this report.
