Israel Hayom – The Equal Sharing of the Burden Bill, which applies the mandatory national service requirement on haredim, was passed with an overwhelming majority on Wednesday, some two years after the High Court of Justice said the de facto waiver ultra-Orthodox men enjoyed was unconstitutional.
Sixty-five MKs voted in favor of the bill, with one opposed. The opposition, which includes several haredi parties, boycotted the vote because it said the government had abused Knesset procedure to ensure its passage.
