Lately the police have had to deal with many more unusual challenges.

Along with continuing to enforce the third closure, police are being sent to riots and serious riots by extremist ultra-Orthodox factions and "Shabniks" who have decided to join and raise Bnei Brak and Jerusalem in flames, and an increase in violence in the Arab sector that includes protests and clashes in various cities.

Deputy Superintendent Shlomi Toledano, Deputy Head of the National Corona Enforcement Administration, commented in an interview with Walla!

NEWS Tensions with the ultra-Orthodox sector.

"The whole story of ultra-Orthodox police relations was not born in Corona. Maybe it intensified in light of the fact that the police were sent to enforce the blatant violations that were in some of the ultra-Orthodox sector, and I emphasize - in some of the sector," he said.

"Everyone should not be generalized. Most of them cooperate and follow the guidelines. There are certain factions and it does not matter if it is Corona or not, that there is always a law and things with them and it has been quite a few years."

He said, "We have excellent community relations with the residents of Bnei Brak and with the ultra-Orthodox sector. We are constantly talking to them. The goal is to motivate people to do things in agreement. We are on the ground with both overt and covert forces. We determine the order of forces." "According to our experience, when we enter such places, we need to come up with stronger forces."

"From many years of experience with the ultra-Orthodox sector, we must constantly continue the discourse of dialogue, but at the same time be determined and strong," he emphasized. "One small event is enough to ignite." Toledano also referred to the calm demonstrations in Bnei Brak. Riots then we will return again to disturbances.

In the end, we are not quiet and do our daily assessment of the situation. "

Recently, allegations of selective police enforcement have intensified.

One example of this was at a funeral held last night (Monday) in Jaffa in memory of Muhammad Abu Najm, a senior member of the Islamic Movement in the city who was murdered on Tuesday, which was attended by thousands of people.

Many of the participants in the funeral, which was held in violation of the Corona's guidelines, were seen in the documentation from the scene without masks and without keeping their distance.

Despite the violations, the video from the funeral, which was distributed on social media, did not show any police officers.

In response, Toledano said police are carefully choosing which incidents to act on, and when it is best not to intervene.

"Enforcement is a profession, you have to know how to do it with no sense," he explained.

"If you are in power unions around riots, you can make a judgment and analyze where you can manage risks. Sometimes the harm outweighs the benefit."

"It should be remembered that not everything is visible and is carried out immediately, at the end there is also treatment given after the act and we do it," he noted.

"They also claimed against us that we do not enforce marriages in the Arab sector, and that is not true. We are preparing for such weddings by force and come to enforce."

Increasing erosion - and who are the fruits of isolation?

Later, Toledano also addressed the public concern of a fourth locksmith.

"The public is worn out. We are a year under the corona plague. In the event of a fourth closure, there will be an even greater sense of attrition," he predicted.

"Our cops are also tense from every possible direction and around enforcement. In the end all we have left is to just ask the public to obey instructions. We all want to end this saga, none of us enlisted in the police to enforce Corona. We try to do it with a lot of common sense and a lot of sensitivity." .

"We are less reach older people, for example, the data show that fewer violate insulation. The classic profile of the fruit of isolation are men aged 18-40. Even those who returned from abroad from red with greater potential to break isolation, and which we come."

Meanwhile, The traffic department of the police continues to enforce traffic offenses while engaging in corona regulations. More than once, traffic police officers find verified patients traveling on the road and may spread the plague.
