National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir is on his way to the scene of today’s mass shooting in Yafa an-Naseriyye, his office says.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has held a phone briefing with Ben Gvir and Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai on the matter, the Prime Minister’s Office says.
Netanyahu “ordered to act immediately to find the murderers and to take determined action to eradicate the epidemic of violence and murder in the Arab society,” the statement says.
