Persecution of the Torah world: After 4 a.m., military police officers arrived at the home of a student of the 'Hazon Mordechai' yeshiva - two of whose students were arrested last week by the IDF - in Herzliya.

Following a mistake, the family members opened the door and the military police officers conducted a brutal search of the family home. During the incident, the family members contacted the 'Black Color' system. The force commander, who noticed that the mother was talking to a representative of the 'Black Color' system, ordered the officers to withdraw, even though no alert had yet been issued.

Additionally, during the night, attempts were made in Tel Aviv to arrest a yeshiva student, a Kiryat Malachi yeshiva student who had already been arrested in the past. The young man was not at home.

In the city of Dimona, an attempted arrest of a member of the Gur Hasidic community was also made. In this case, the family members contacted the "Black Color" system, and when the public arrived at the scene, the police forces left the area.

According to the organization 'Giving Women', these arrest attempts join the arrests made in the past week, when a yeshiva student was arrested at his home in Herzliya on Sunday evening, and another yeshiva student was handed over to the military police by the Israel Police at a gas station on the way out of the city of Ashdod.
