Border Police prevent far-right activist from holding son’s circumcision at illegal outpost

Some 150 Border Police officers were dispatched to the Kumi Ori illegal outpost outside of the Yitzhar settlement to prevent one of the wildcat community’s residents from holding his son’s circumcision next to his home, which was flattened last month due to its illegal construction.

The circumcision was instead held near the entrance to Kumi Ori, attendees report. The father of the newborn baby is Neri Zarog, who Israeli security officials have identified as an “extremist” who has sought to violently target security forces and neighboring Palestinians.
