Chairman of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee MK Boaz Bismuth was verbally attacked on Thursday evening as he was leaving an event in Bnei Brak.

Bismuth stated: “The common denominator between the extremists in Bnei Brak and the Kaplan extremists and the leftists who attacked me in the past is their realization that the draft law will pass and lead to the conscription of haredim. I will continue fearlessly to advance the law."
