Times Of Israel: October 7 changed Israel forever, but the ultra-Orthodox? Not so much, report suggests
Following the Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023, there was a brief surge of solidarity within Israeli society, including the ultra-Orthodox community.

The report highlights a slight increase in enlistment among ultra-Orthodox men, yet overall participation remains low compared to the growing number of Haredi youths. The gap in education, employment, and income between the Haredi community and the rest of Israeli society persists, with calls for more effective measures to encourage integration.
