Some 100 Haredi men have blocked the junction of Sarei Israel and Jaffa Streets in Jerusalem in protest of the arrest of two yeshiva students who draft dodged.
Meanwhile, in a similar protest in Bnei Brak, police have arrested 28 Haredi protestors during a demonstration of the ultra-orthodox "Jerusalem faction."
Police said the protestors were assaulting the officers assigned to the scene and causing public disturbances.
