About This Trend
חוק השתמטות refers to a proposed law in Israel related to military service exemptions, particularly for ultra-Orthodox men. The law has been a point of contention in Israeli politics, with debates surrounding exemptions for certain groups.
The trend is currently active due to recent statements by Yuli Edelstein, chairman of the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, who declared that the draft dodging law is no longer viable and called for a state commission to resolve the issue. This has sparked significant political and public debate.
