MKs Freeze IDF Money Pending for Yeshivot and Bus Protection

MKs Uri Ariel (National Union), Ze'ev Elkin (Likud) and Uri Orbach (Jewish Home) filed an appeal to the Knesset Finance Committee's decision Tuesday to approve the transfer of three billion shekels ($750 million) to the Israel Defense Forces. The practical implication is that the budget will be frozen until the appeal's hearing or until the MKs remove their opposition.
