A group of about 20 chareidim tried to make their way from the Port of Ashdod on Sunday by boat, seeking to rent a vessel after realizing police have established checkpoints in areas leading to Ashkelon by vehicle.
Police instructed port officials not to rent them a vessel, thwarting their plan to make their way to the Barzilai Hospital construction site to interfere with the exhumation of bones at that location towards clearing the way to begin construction on the new fortified emergency room.

Kol Hakoavod to these prostester for standing up for what they beleive!
But why are they so vocal about remains of bodies that may or may not be Jews, while they were silent 5 years ago when the buried remains definate Jews of Gush Katif were exhumed during the disengagement?
Why didn’t that bother them?
