Following requests from multiple Knesset remembers, the Knesset will break its current recess to open for a special plenum session this coming Wednesday, says Knesset secretary Dan Marzuk.

Four topics are scheduled for discussion: The recent wave of terror attacks; a sentencing floor for illegal weapons offenses; government decisions regarding the Negev; and expected upcoming moves regarding Homesh, an illegal West Bank outpost.

With the close of winter session on March 13, the Knesset began one of its two annual recesses, which will end with the opening of the summer session on May 8.
