Lapid: ‘A disgrace’ to distort border cop’s killing of Palestinian stabber

Prime Minister Yair Lapid joins a chorus of politicians backing a Border Police officer filmed shooting dead a Palestinian stabber.

“Any attempt to distort reality and tell false stories to the world is simply a disgrace,” Lapid says in a statement. “Our security forces will continue to act determinedly against terror wherever it raises its head.”

He also wishes a speedy recovery to another border guard wounded in the incident.
