Boycott over Omer Bar-Lev protest
Angel Bakeries faced a boycott call from religious leaders after board chairman Omer Bar-Lev participated in a protest outside the home of Rabbi Gershon Edelstein, a prominent Haredi authority. The campaign was described as a response to what parts of the religious community regarded as disrespect toward the rabbi. Several large yeshivas reportedly canceled contracts, while the available reference does not establish the final commercial or governance outcome.
