More than 100 extreme ultra-Orthodox individuals stormed a building in Modiin after military police arrived to carry out an arrest operation. The group confronted officers in a violent altercation that forced security forces to leave the scene without apprehending their target.

According to Ynet’s report, the arrest operation failed after the large gathering of extremists overwhelmed the military police presence at the location. The incident highlights escalating tensions between law enforcement and fringe ultra-Orthodox communities.

The Phalag Yerushalayim’s “Black Color” operations center claimed responsibility for the disruption, stating that “thanks to the holy public, the police left the scene.” The incident underscores ongoing security challenges related to enforcement operations within certain ultra-Orthodox communities.
