The haredi soldier vs. the extremists at the Western Wall: 'I came out strengthened'

Mendel Roth, a haredi soldier in the Hashmonaim Brigade, arrived at the Western Wall to recite Selichot prayers, where a group of Hasidic boys gathered around him, curious about his military service. Some extremists attempted to distance them and even claimed there is a "halachic ruling to throw him out of the place."
