Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara on Friday asked the court to strike down the law, arguing that it retains the duty to enlist while removing the consequences for refusal.

Critics are concerned that the deal, through which US companies would help Saudi Arabia build civilian nuclear energy plants, could allow Saudi Arabia to eventually develop nuclear weapons.

The dispute comes after a succession of increasingly forceful High Court judgments on inequality in military service and the government’s failure to enforce the existing draft law.

“Trump wants to distance himself from him [Netanyahu]. The relationship has become a burden, and it is already hurting him in the upcoming US midterm elections," Liberman said.

A new survey finds Israel's center-right opposition favors diplomacy, regional ties, and policy change, not just replacing Netanyahu.

Protests marking the milestone were held on Thursday outside the homes of several israeli politicians, including Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana and Education Minister Yoav Kish.

On Monday, the rabbi verbally attacked Zamir, saying, "may his name and memory be erased," after a soldier was sent to prison because he wore a 'Messiah' patch.

Leader of the Democrats party, Yair Golan, called to “block every shekel that finances draft evasion,” as well as institutions that incite against service.

"I told the Prime Minister, even in our private meetings: For every tear of an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep," Ben-Gvir wrote on X/Twitter.

Liberman also called for regime change efforts, establishing a new IDF missile corps, argued the Mossad should focus on toppling Iran's regime, and advocated a tougher stance toward Hezbollah.
