Israel Faces Haredi Draft Crisis Amid Coalition Tensions

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant's call for Haredi IDF enlistment sparks controversy, putting Netanyahu's coalition at risk.

Gallant's public demand for Haredi men to be drafted into the IDF has stirred significant political and social debate.
The Haredi community's resistance to military service is a longstanding issue, with recent proposals aiming to integrate them more fully into Israeli society.
Netanyahu's coalition faces internal strife, with Haredi parties expressing strong opposition to the draft proposals.
The Supreme Court's involvement adds legal pressure, requiring the government to present a new conscription plan.
Efforts to find a compromise include proposals for national service as an alternative to military enlistment for Haredi men.
