Gantz in Bnei Brak: We will not conduct ourselves chaotically
Defense Minister Benny Gantz tours the ultra-Orthodox city of Bnei Brak, one of the places hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic, and which is slated for possible closure starting tomorrow, according to the original government plan.
Speaking as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reported to walk back his decision to lock down Bnei Brak and other cities due to high infection rates, following pressure from Haredi politicians, Gantz says: “We will not conduct ourselves chaotically, but in an orderly fashion.”
He apologizes for decisions once again being made at the last minute.
