UTJ slams PM on Tal Law, demands he honor coalition deal

United Torah Judaism strongly criticized Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's announcement that if an alternative to the Tal Law is not found, beginning August 1, ultra-Orthodox Torah scholars of enlistment age will be considered in evasion of military service under the Security Service Law.
The faction issued a statement Monday demanding that the "prime minister honor the coalition agreement as it is written and pass in the Knesset a law that will allow the continuing existence of the world of the Torah and the preservation of the status of Torah scholars."
