Senior leaders of the ultra-Orthodox community are considering holding demonstrations outside of Israeli embassies worldwide in order to protest the arrest of Haredi draft evaders in Israel by the military police, a source with knowledge of the senior rabbis’ thinking told The Times of Israel on Saturday.
