The disaster at the Haredi children's daycare center in the Romema neighborhood of Jerusalem: Former Minister of the Interior, MK Moshe Arbel From the Shas party, he is the first Knesset member to mention that "the writing was on the wall.".
The incident occurred in a private Haredi kindergarten in a building on 10th Street, which operated without a license.
Arbel linked the disaster at the pirate residence to legal decisions that led to the cessation of subsidies for families of young men who do not report for military service.

He said, "In the State of Israel, the children of illegal immigrants are entitled to daycare centers and kindergartens. In the name of the struggle against the ultra-Orthodox public, the children of the Avrechim are expelled from supervised daycare centers. The voice of the blood of the babies of the Rabban family, children who have not tasted the taste of sin, cries out from the earth. We must all stop the persecution, children's lives, outside of any political struggle.".
The journalist Israel Cohen: ""Blood on our hands! Just to remind you that the Attorney General and the legal system pushed an entire Haredi community to the wall, canceled the subsidy for Haredi toddlers' daycares, and the parents were financially forced to move to private daycares. Today's difficult event is already the sad and painful result.".
MK Yoav Ben Tzur MSAS: "Our hearts bleed over the severe tragedy at the unsupervised daycare center in Jerusalem. In these moments, our hearts go out to the families of the toddlers whose worlds were destroyed by the severe disaster that befell them, all of us.".
""In the stubborn struggle I waged for the continuation of daycare subsidies for preschoolers, I warned and cried out in dozens of written and legally supported documents to the government's legal counsel about the serious danger of denying subsidies to supervised daycares and pushing thousands of families into unsupervised daycares.
""Unfortunately, today the fear turned out to be a true cry. The writing was on the wall. Helpless toddlers paid with their lives because of forceful and irresponsible decisions that harmed helpless toddlers first and foremost.".
Chairman of the Committee on the Rights of the Child, MK Kati Shitrit From the Likud: "In light of this shocking incident, I demand an urgent hearing in the committee that will investigate the lack of supervision in kindergartens operating in violation of the law. It is impossible that, under the guise of the authorities and without interference, unsupervised daycare centers will serve as a fertile ground for neglect that endangers the children of Israel. I call on the entire public to pray for the complete and speedy recovery of all the toddlers.".
President of the State Isaac Herzog He referred to the terrible disaster: "I share in the great sorrow of the parents of the babies and the pain of the families. The loss of the lives of tender toddlers is a deep and indescribable heartbreak, and my heart goes out to all the parents and children who were affected.""
The president called for a thorough investigation of the incident: "What happened must be investigated, clarified and understood, lessons must be drawn and justice must be served. Supervision of early childhood settings is a critical component of the safety and well-being of our children. All parties must ensure enforcement, safety and full responsibility so that such a disaster does not happen again.".
Leader of the Opposition Yair Lapid He addressed the terrible disaster: "I share in the sorrow of the families of the two toddlers who lost their lives today in the disaster at the kindergarten in Jerusalem. I wish a speedy recovery to the injured babies. I am shocked by the harsh reactions on social media about two-month-old and four-month-old babies. The death of children is terrible and heartbreaking, it must not be brought into any political debate.".
