High Court petition aims to revoke extension of men's IDF service
The Movement for Quality Government in Israel filed a petition with the High Court of Justice to revoke a Knesset decision prolonging men's active duty service by six months.
The group claims that the Knesset's decision was unconstitutional as it offends the basic rights of soldiers such as freedom and freedom of occupation. The petitioners also claim that such grievances can be prevented by revoking the Tal Law which exempts yeshiva students from IDF service. (Aviad Glickman)
