Teen Killed in Jerusalem Protest

Teen Killed in Jerusalem Protest

A big bus drove into a crowd of people in Jerusalem.

The people were part of a large group protesting against having to join the military.

Sadly, a young man, 18 years old, was killed when the bus hit him.

The police have taken the bus driver into custody and are trying to figure out what happened.

This event happened during a protest where thousands of people were gathered.

The issue of who has to join the military has been causing a lot of tension in Israel for a long time.

The Prime Minister asked everyone to stay calm to prevent more problems.

Some people think the ultra-Orthodox should join the military, but others believe it would hurt their way of life.
