Minister: Government must do some ‘soul-searching’ over situation in Bnei Brak
Transportation Minister Bezalel Smotrich says he and his fellow ministers ought to do some soul-searching over their role in the spiraling situation in Bnei Brak.
He says in a Twitter thread that their response to the crisis had been for the general public and that specialized communications should have been drawn up for the Haredi minority, which often does not have access to TV or internet and has a much more difficult time quarantining given that many homes house 10-15 people in close quarters.
