Likud MK Kallner opposes criminal arrests for haredi draft evaders, backs economic sanctions
Kallner, a member of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, told 103FM that he does not think arresting yeshiva students is 'the right way.'
Assessment
A Likud MK on the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee publicly breaks with criminal arrest proposals for haredi draft evaders, instead advocating economic sanctions. This signals internal coalition disagreement on enforcement strategy. The divide between punitive and financial measures may shape upcoming legislation and test government unity on the conscription issue.
