Liberman condemns settler rock attack on IDF soldiers

Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman condemns a rock throwing attack carried out by Israeli settlers in the West Bank over the weekend in which an IDF officer was injured, calling the perpetrators of the attack “thugs.”

In a Facebook post, Liberman says that there is “zero tolerance” for violence toward soldiers and that the “thugs” responsible must be brought to justice.

“The legal authorities must judge these thugs severely in a quick and firm manner,” he says. “This is a grave problem that we cannot be forgiving toward.”
