38 demonstrators from the Jerusalem faction were arrested Sunday during a protest against the extension of the detention of an ultra-Orthodox young man arrested on IDF defections. Police forces reached the intersection of Jaffa and Shari'a streets, where the demonstration is taking place, in order to take control of order violations and prevent deputies from blocking. Additional police forces were reportedly deployed at intersections in the area and directing traffic to other roads and taking care of the flow.
Earlier today, the court extended the arrest of Yeshiva student Daniel Mehdeni until Thursday. Mahdani, the son of the Ethiopian community's leader in Or Yehuda - Nadav Mahdani, did not report to the recruitment bureau to sign his deferral, subject to the teaching of Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach, leader of the Jerusalem faction who passed away. Mehdani's father said that if his son had received the summons, he would have been required to do so by law.
