Two Israeli female soldiers had to be rescued after being chased by a crowd of hundreds of ultra-Orthodox Jewish men in the Israeli city of Bnei Brak near Tel Aviv.
Video footage from the scene shows two women running through streets littered with rubbish and overturned garbage bins, surrounded by guards as a mob of screaming black and white-clad ultra-Orthodox men chase after them. Ultra-Orthodox Jews are also known as the Haredim.
The Times of Israel reported that the women were squad commanders at the education and youth corps who were on an official home visit to a draftee set to join the unit when they were attacked.\
