JERUSALEM (VINnews) — A group of national-religious girls were attacked by extremists while walking through the Meah Shearim neighborhood in Jerusalem on their way to the flag parade on Tuesday. The girls were pelted with water bags and catcalled by the extremist elements, who called the police. When they arrived, police attempted to create a buffer between the protesters and the girls.
A bus carrying about 30 girls got stuck in the narrow streets of the neighborhood and the girls alighted in order to walk to the flag parade. However the extremists surrounded the bus and protested against the girls attire. They also complained about the flag parade, claiming that it was “provocation against the gentiles.”

Disgusting behavior. I am not modern Orthodox, but how dare these savages attack bnos Yisroel who, by the way, based on footage are dressed tznius plenty. To take a chance to physically injure another Jew??? Why provide ammunition to all those who say all hareidim are like this? When the scourge of anti-Semitism is so bad and so many Jews are being attacked by Arabs and other anti-Semites, how dare you raise your ugly hands at other Jews – Orthodox too, mind you???
Watched the video. These so-called frum men, should spend less time chasing girls and should look at their community. It looks like a pig sty. Garbage laying around all over. Furthermore, Why are they not in the Bais medrash? What a racket!
Turns my stomach let them take off their chasidish behgodim they won’t get schar I guarantee it would rav Areyeh Levine act that way I THINK NOT
Hatred expressed by violence in Meah Shearim, and in other Charedi neighborhhoods in Eretz Yisrael are, unfortunately, not new or unusual.
Nebech, sinas chinum is tolerated, even as we approach the reminder of the Churben of the Beias which was a result of sinas chinum. Please – learn from this.
I’m disgusted with these rabble rousers and truthfully I’m disgusted with the commenters who somehow justify this behavior. I was hoping after Meron and Karlin we would behave a little better towards another Yid. This is great way how not to be mekariv someone.
Disgusting instead of blessing them this won’t bring moshiach
Not “Chareidim”, but “Chazeirim”
Like the pig, they may look kosher, but are treif!
Can’t even imagine how sick these people are.
They are worse than Hamas!!!
Now these girls will hate frum jews for the rest of their lives.Animal they are worse then the arabs
This happens on the same day that chareidim are getting robbed, like the “underprivileged ” ghetto section 8 welfare Queens in the projects who are ungrateful so too these parasites are who SHOULD be learning all day
If you don’t get attacked by Arab terrorist, you can get it from Neturei Karta terrorists.
These have, by the way, been seen at anti-Israel demonstrations around the world ON SHABBOS with their kafias over their taleisim holding signs.
Look beneath the facade folks.
It’s not the way they were dressed. That’s an excuse.
It’s that they were going to march proudly with the beautiful flags and be proud Jewish young women. That’s what bothered them most.
We salute you and are very proud of you , girls.
You guys are being duped by serious propaganda. These girls were instigating newsworthy conflict.
I agree about the provocation.
Psych fact:
The more extreme obsessed tznius chnyuk you are , the bigger the secret pervert you are.
Bitul zman Torah.
Never understood why the dati leumi and modern Orthodox women for the most part just disregard the Torah laws of Tzinut. But the tochacha in Meah Sheatim was a too strong.
I’m not pro violence at all, but i have zero sympathy for anyone who walks through Mea Shearim like that, they were literally begging for trouble
The Ultras are wrong, not a way to behave and react.. (reminds me of the spitter several years ago).
But the girls’ provoked it. Why walking thru their neighborhood? You could’ve walked a different route.
I know many people are going to have different opinions and that’s fine. Not justifying Ultra’s behavior – but come’on.
The negative commentators don’t have the right hashkafa. There is a diferrence between giving in to the Arabs about a parade marching through their neighborhood, to show that you’re not submitting to their controlling principles, and marching through an ultra orthodox neighborhood in defiance of laws that you are required to abide by the Torah. Modest dress code is a Torah obligation. That is considered unjustified provocation.
For those of you who think these girls are dressed like some of the girls in Flatbush. Wake up. Unfortunately there is a serious breakdown in tzneiyos in flatbush. Females are walking around with skirts above their knees instead of four inches below the knee as a real Jewish girl dresses. A woman should not wear leggings in public. It’s a shanda how so called orthodox women parade around with no stockings or cutout outfits.
Interesting that nobody has commented that girls have no business parading anywhere.
Kol kevuda bas melech penima means that girls do nor “parade”. That is an oxymoron.
Let them dress tznius and no one will bother them. We need these meah shearim chevra in Flatbush and crown heights to lay down the law
