Haredi Minister Meir Porush's son was attacked in Jerusalem by neighbors affiliated with the Gur Hasidic dynasty, apparently in response to the minister's support for the state budget. The attackers tried to snatch the minister's infant grandson, but the baby was rescued. The younger Porush was taken to the hospital with bruises. The attack is believed to be linked to disagreements over a bill exempting yeshiva students from military service.
