Police forcefully disperse anti-draft haredi Jerusalem Faction protest at Chords Bridge

Anti-IDF haredi activists blocked Jerusalem's Chords Bridge, causing traffic disruptions, as Israel Police worked to restore order. The protesters, part of the Jerusalem Faction, had refused orders to clear the road, escalating the protest to a riot. Police used "skunk spray" and stun grenades to disperse the protesters, who were throwing stones and objects at civilians and police officers. The police aimed to restore order and reopen the road to the public.
