A group of radical Haredim is initiating a series of actions to disrupt election day, as first reported by our Haredi affairs correspondent Ari Kalman on "The Main Edition" with Michal Rabinovich. As part of the plan, they intend to hold protest vigils aimed at disrupting voting. According to the report, the initiative's goal is to disrupt access to polling stations and suppress voting among the Haredi community. The article notes that this is a similar initiative to that of the "Black Color" party, which aims to burn Haredi votes. One of the protest initiators said in a conversation with i24NEWS: "The goal is to create chaos and mayhem, so that people will think twice before going out to vote and yeshiva students will prefer to stay in their institutions." The report is based on a conversation with one of the protest initiators and does not detail the identity of the initiators, the scope of the planned actions, or their exact timing.
