MK Porush Clashes with Education Minister Over Haredi Institutions

Minister Meir Porush sharply criticized Education Minister Yoav Kish for imposing harsh measures against Haredi educational institutions that operated in violation of IDF Home Front Command guidelines during Iran’s missile barrage. Porush called Kish’s actions “patronizing,” accusing him of being “disconnected from the Haredi way of life.” He argued that the vast majority of these institutions were established by nonprofit organizations, not the Education Ministry, and thus the ministry lacks the authority to close them if it did not open them
