15:22Now PlayingTensions rise in Israel as the ultra-Orthodox influence on public life expands, sparking fears over increasing gender segregation. A notable incident took place when Inbal Boxerman, an Israeli woman, attempted to board a public train in Tel Aviv. She was confronted by ultra-Orthodox men who informed her that the train was "only for men." While the Israeli Supreme Court has deemed such forced gender segregation on public transport illegal, similar instances are becoming more common. These growing concerns are compounded by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's political concessions to ultra-Orthodox and far-right parties in his governing coalition. Some of these concessions involve proposals to segregate audiences by gender at certain public events, empower all-male rabbinical courts further, and even permit businesses to deny services based on religious beliefs. As a testament to the shifting dynamics, Israel dropped to 83rd place in a global gender gap report, despite historically guaranteeing equal rights for women since its 1948 declaration of independence. Commenting on this concerning trajectory, women's rights advocate, Moran Zer Katzenstein, warned, “What is going on here is not an issue of left and right — they are changing the rules of the game, and it will have a dramatic effect on women. Our rights will be harmed first.”
