The leaders of Degel Hatorah and Shas, MKs Moshe Gafni and Arye Deri, announced on Tuesday that they would support dissolving the Knesset if no progress was made on the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) draft bill.
“Today we held a meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu and conveyed to him, on behalf of the great men of Israel, an unequivocal demand to immediately advance the Basic Law on Torah Study and the Law to Stop the Arrests of Torah Students, by convening the Foreign Affairs and Security Committee and the Knesset Committee this week,” they said in a joint statement.
According to their statement, Netanyahu “made it clear at the meeting that he is committed to approving the laws and will work to advance them quickly.”
