Former Sephardi chief rabbi Yitzhak Yosef, who serves as the spiritual leader of the haredi (ultra-Orthodox) party Shas, said that the emerging US-Iran deal was divine retribution for efforts to enforce stricter measures against haredi draft evaders, and claimed the shift in orders has led US President Donald Trump to “turn against” Israel.
