Netanyahu urges Arab Israelis to work with authorities to curb violence
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls on Arab Israeli leaders to work with Israeli authorities to reduce deadly violence among the minority group, amid protests over alleged police inaction.
A statement from his office says Netanyahu spoke with Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan and acting Police Commissioner Motti, and they agreed to allocate additional police forces to counter violence in Arab communities.
Netanyahu urges Arab Israeli leaders to work with law enforcement and calls for them to refrain from violence during the protests.
“All of us need to act responsibility and cooperate in order to fight violence,” he says.
