A shocking incident occurred in Bnei Brak on Thursday evening, and police responded in force.
Undercover police officers were spotted inside the Vishnitz Merkaz (Reb Mendel) building on Ezra Street near Shlomo Hamelech Steet for some type of COVID enforcement. Infuriated that Police were inside the building, dozens of Bochurim chased the two police officers outside and physically attacked them. They then began violently attacking the police car.
The officers managed to drive away, and are being treated in a hospital for injuries.
The incident has prompted dozens of Knesset members around Israel to condemn the attack, as well as all Chareidi elected officials to condemn the incident.
A short while later, hundreds of officers in riot gear entered the area, to investigate the incident and look for the suspects. Police were seen on many streets, some using flash bang devices as the operation continued.
This is not the first violent incident involving boys from the Chassidus.
