Justice Minister Yariv Levin and Interior Minister Moshe Arbel meet with legal and judicial officials to discuss the feasibility of stripping citizenship and residency from people who “deal in terror, support terror, incite terror, or identify with a terror activity,” they say in a joint statement.
“Given the current situation, it was agreed to immediately advance legislation that would view carrying out the above activities at a time of war as sufficient grounds to rescind citizenship or residency,” the statement says.
