Ultra-Orthodox lawmakers have strongly condemned the military after it was confirmed that Avraham Ben Dayan, a draft dodger held in military prison, was not allowed to put on tefillin during his detention. The military acknowledged the incident, attributing it to a delay in Ben Dayan's transfer to a detention unit and stated that procedures have been reinforced to prevent similar occurrences. Lawmakers from Ultra-Orthodox parties described the event as a violation of basic Jewish rights and criticized the ongoing arrests of yeshiva students, drawing historical comparisons and questioning the state's commitment to Jewish tradition. The incident has intensified tensions between Ultra-Orthodox representatives and the military, with promises from lawmakers not to remain silent on the issue.
