Only 12 out of 90 summoned Charedi men reported to induction centers today to begin the screening process for military enlistment, according to the IDF.
The IDF said that those who failed to appear will be summoned again, and repeated non-compliance will result in being considered a deserter, potentially leading to arrest.
This development comes as the IDF is sending draft orders to approximately 3,000 Charedi men, following a High Court ruling that abolished the legal exemption for yeshiva students from military service.
Earlier in the day, Charedi protesters gathered outside a recruitment base, leading to 12 arrests as the demonstration turned violent.

To them it was a success
Even one Chareidi is a success for them
Now why did those chareidim go in the first place and decide not to listen to the gedolim
12 Angry Men
Only Israel would try to undermine their own country in the middle of a foreign war which won’t necessarily go their way, considering that Israel relies heavily on foreign support, and the two leading candidates in America’s election are anti-war, anti-Israel, or (in the case of Harris), both.
It does some precedence in Jewish history, as it seems very similar to how we dealt with the war against Rome (set Jews against Jews, ignore reality, persecute the Bnei Torah, etc.)
12 is twelve to many!!!
Actually, 12 bochurim who had a backbone and felt they had an obligation to lift up a sword and help defend their families. The other 78 will be among the first crawl under their shtenders when the air raid sirens go off (assuming all of them are actually shteiging).
Some commenters here you would think they work for the Attorney General themselves. If you have zero value for those who learn Torah don’t call yourself a religious Jew

Actually, those 12 chose – knowingly or not – to be forcibly converted in the Zionist shmad army from Judaism to Zionism, in addition to the gimmel chamuros. There are plenty of better ways to defend Jews than being shmaded in the Zionist army.
Some of the comments here seem to be coming from the attorney general’s office. If you don’t value Torah Learning at all, don’t call yourself religious
Ashrechem Mekadshe Shem Shamayim!!
They only called up Chareidim who are not registered in any Yeshiva. They should either return to learning or report for service like any other citizen.
