The Haredim who decided to start a world war in the south: "Buy only from our people"
The Gur Hasidic community in Arad published strict guidelines for children entering the city mall, including a ban on entering stores not owned by members of the sect and a warning against "people who are not from our camp, etc." The publication sparked outrage among secular residents, who responded with calls for a boycott of Hasidic businesses and harsh criticism of the segregation and discrimination.
The Gur Hasidic community in Arad published strict guidelines for children entering the city mall (A.R.D.), including a ban on entering stores not owned by members of the sect and a warning against "people who are not from our camp, etc." The guidelines, signed by rabbis from the Or Simcha institutions, state that entry is permitted only with parental accompaniment and solely for shopping, not for leisure. The publication sparked widespread outrage among secular residents, who responded with calls for a boycott of Hasidic businesses, harsh criticism of the segregation and discrimination, and calls to replace the mayor. The incident is part of a broader struggle between the growing Haredi community in Arad and secular residents, against the backdrop of the sect's increasing influence over the city, including the election of a mayor from its ranks.
