Kerry ‘confident’ Israel will probe protest violence

US Secretary of State John Kerry says he is confident Israel will investigate violence against the Ethiopian Jewish community after a wave of angry protests in recent days.

“I’m confident the Israeli leadership will work this through in a way that honors the goals and aspirations and traditions and values of the people of Israel,” Kerry tells reporters in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi.

He says he believed the matter would be put “thoroughly under investigation.”
