A branch of the United Torah Judaism party threatened on Monday to leave Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's ruling coalition government unless it is presented with a draft of a bill exempting yeshiva students from military service, multiple news sources reported.
Degel Hatorah is giving the government 24 hours to make a decision. Ultra-Orthodox party Shas is also reportedly threatening to resign from the government within days.
A yeshiva is an Orthodox Jewish college.
