Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett addressed the agreements reached between Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee Chairman Yuli Edelstein and the ultra-Orthodox parties regarding the military service exemption law, and wrote on X that the proposed law is a "bluff." "In the middle of the night, the Israeli government delivered a crushing blow to reservists, saying 'No help is on the way, you're on your own.' The law will push away ultra-Orthodox enlistment and prevent their entry into the workforce," Bennett wrote.
