The State Prosecutor’s Office filed an indictment on Monday in the Ashkelon Magistrate’s Court against 17 defendants — four of them minors — after they trespassed on the property of the IDF Military Police Chief in Ashkelon during a protest against the IDF draft.
According to the indictment, about a month and a half ago, dozens of protesters affiliated with Peleg Yerushalmi gathered near the officer’s home to protest the draft.
Protesters entered the yard, the porch, and the steps leading to the house. Some sat or stood while holding hands. They sang protest songs, held signs, and shouted insults at the officer and at the IDF.
