IDF to approve orders regulating service conditions for Haredi troops in coming weeks

The Israeli military is set to approve a General Staff order in the coming weeks that will formalize service conditions for ultra-Orthodox troops, following demands from lawmakers and community leaders. The order aims to address concerns that service arrangements for these soldiers must be officially anchored to be effective, as emphasized by prominent religious figures. Delays in signing the order have prompted scrutiny from the Knesset, with military officials assuring that the process is nearing completion and reasons for any further delays will be provided. This development comes as the parliament debates new legislation that would maintain exemptions for full-time religious students while seeking to increase conscription among other graduates of ultra-Orthodox schools.
