18 pro-Israel parliamentarians tour Hebron

Eighteen pro-Israel parliamentarians from Europe, Central America, and South Africa tour the West Bank city of Hebron.

During the tour, organized by Foundations Allies Israel, the lawmakers visited the Tomb of the Patriarchs, Tel Rumeida, and the Hebron museum in Beit Hadassah.

South African MP Kenneth Meshoe is quoted by the organization in a Hebrew-language statement as saying that calling Hebron occupied is no less ridiculous than saying Arab leaders are occupiers of Arab countries.
