We cannot apply the filter policy within the Junos OS version 23.4R2-S5.5-EVO.

This is some configuration of the old version 23.1R1 ( filter policy can applied perfectly).

'interface et-0/0/24.234'

EVPN: Interface..... et-0/0/24.234 could not be created from the configuration

error: configuration check-out failed

I tried in lab & found the same error while commit. It worked after removing below config.

delete routing-instances testing-filter interface et-0/0/24.234

You need to remove the interface 'et-0/0/24.234' from routing-instance.

Since this is part of vlans config in instance, the service should come up fine.

I am sharing the issue & resolution from lab.

Issue in lab:
