The Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court orders Yair Netanyahu, the son of the prime minister, to take down a tweet identifying the leaders of a protest movement against his father.

The younger Netanyahu publicized the activists’ addresses and encouraged his 88,000-plus social media followers to picket their homes.

“I invite everyone to come to protest, day and night (the Supreme Court says it’s allowed), at the homes of these people who have been organizing the anarchy in the country for all of us in recent weeks,” Netanyahu tweeted on Thursday.

The court also tells Yair Netanyahu to stop harassing the activists for six months, “in any form,” according to Hebrew reports.
