Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu:

I strongly condemn the criminal violent acts carried out by a group of troublemakers in the villages of Qasra and Jalud.

These rioters break the law, create a great injustice against the law-abiding Jewish community, interfere with the missions of the Israeli army, and harm Israel’s standing in the world.

Security forces moved quickly, seized three vehicles, and brought the incident to an end in a short time.

The Israeli army, the Israeli internal security service, and the police are carrying out serious investigations on the scene, and I expect law-enforcement officials to arrest the rioters as soon as possible and hand them over to justice.
