Religious Zionism MK Itamar Ben Gvir is filmed trying to kick Palestinian activists in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem.
Earlier this month, the far-right lawmaker set up a makeshift parliamentary office in the neighborhood where Palestinians face eviction by Israeli authorities. Both Israeli and Palestinian officials have accused Ben Gvir of trying to inflame tensions in the area.
Joint List MK Ahmad Tibi shares the footage and blasts former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu for orchestrating a merger of far-right parties that ensured Ben Gvir’s entry into the Knesset.
חבר כנסת משתמש בבעיטות (אחרי שבבוקר הוא צעק על אם שכולה לילד אוטיסט). את הסרטון הזה אפשר לראות עם רמקולים ובלעדיהם והתוצאה היא אחרת לחלוטין. pic.twitter.com/VGqVwymC7c
