Yisrael! party chairman Gadi Eisenkot addressed the ultra-Orthodox protests and said that "the distinction between blood and blood not only deteriorates Israeli society, it also harms our security. Instead of strengthening the IDF, the draft-dodging government cultivates chaos and disorder in the streets." Yisrael Beiteinu chairman MK Avigdor Lieberman added: "Once again Bibi's draft-dodging partners are blocking the roads and harassing citizens returning home from work. On 10.27 this will end. All road blockers will go to jail, soldiers will receive one hundred percent and all deserters and draft dodgers zero."
