Far-right Settlements Minister Orit Strock writes on X that the terrorists took “advantage of the reckless and unjust ‘freedom of movement’ which also allows terrorists… to travel alongside us on our arterial roads (while they have alternative roads)” — a reference to the use of West Bank roads by both Israelis and Palestinians.

She writes the greater number of cars on the shared roads “creates traffic congestion and traffic jams that generate victims for terrorist attacks. It’s time to fix this, our blood is no less red.”
