Deputy defense minister to speak on Joseph’s Tomb arson
Deputy Defense Minister Eli Ben Dahan, of the Jewish Home party, will give a statement to the press at 10:30 a.m. at Jaffa Gate in Jerusalem’s Old City.
The statement will concern “the security situation and the torching of Joseph’s Tomb,” a statement from the deputy minister’s office says.
He will also distribute baked goods to the security forces stationed at the site, part of a bolstered security presence meant to counter the recent wave of terror attacks.
