In this week's episode of What Matters Now, senior analyst Haviv Rettig Gur discusses the declining rate of reserve soldiers showing up for duty in the IDF and the low turnout of Haredi men being drafted into the military.

The conversation also explores rising resentment among Israeli society towards the refusal of Haredim to draft in necessary numbers.
