Thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jews in Israel have clashed with police in a series of protests across Jerusalem, following a Supreme Court decision mandating their enlistment in the military. The ruling, which threatens to shake Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition, has sparked outrage among the ultra-Orthodox community, who argue that conscription would erode their religious lifestyle. Demonstrations have turned violent, with protesters blocking roads, attacking a minister's car, and being met with crowd-control measures like 'skunk water' by security forces. The ultra-Orthodox Jews, historically exempt from military service, are protesting a move they see as an attack on their way of life, while the court's decision aims to address issues of equality in military service obligations.
