Joint List urges Bennett to nix Jerusalem flag march, warning of escalation

The Joint List opposition party urges Prime Minister Naftali Bennett to cancel the Jerusalem flag march planned for tomorrow, which is set to pass through the Old City’s Muslim quarter.

“We warn ahead of time that the event is highly likely to reignite tensions and lead to dangerous violence and escalation,” the party says.

Earlier today, Palestinian terror group Hamas warned that the event could spark another war similar to last month’s, which followed a similar event on Jerusalem Day.
