Hatzibur HaCharedi launches new Charedi political party in Israel

Hatzibur HaCharedi, a new Charedi political party in Israel, is seeking to introduce a different approach to Charedi politics. Led by Moti Leitner, the party aims to challenge long-standing assumptions within the Charedi political landscape.

Rabbi Yehoshua Pfeffer, who chairs the party's rabbinic committee, suggests the emergence of the party is driven by a need for hope within Charedi society, particularly in the aftermath of the October 7 attacks.
