Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet Monday with the IDF soldier who was assaulted by two cops in what he maintained was a racist attack.

The prime minister will also meet with representatives from the Ethiopian community, as well as representatives from the Public Security Ministry, Welfare Ministry, Immigrant Absorption Ministry, Interior Ministry, and police.

The assault against Damas Pakada was captured on tape, setting off protests by Ethiopian Israelis against police brutality.
