The Israel Defense Forces Spokesperson's Office has responded to demonstrations and posters against yeshiva students in the IDF by saying, "The IDF condemns the incitement against the one in charge of enlisting yeshiva students, who is fully backed up and will continue to carry out his mission in a dedicated and professional manner, just as he has performed his duties so far."

A statement by the office continued, "This severe incitement, wild and provocative as it may be, will not deter the IDF's activity in enforcing the draft law."
