Ultra-Orthodox Israelis, exempt for decades from military service, are now being drafted. Their rage is dividing Israel and threatening Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition.
Israel has extensively documented the 2023 Hamas-led assault and is believed to be holding at least 200 Palestinians suspected of involvement. Not one has been charged or put on trial.
Relatives of captives held by Hamas denounced the Israeli government for what they called “an endless war without purpose.” It was unclear how many people would take part in the labor strike.
