Police unhappy to be blamed for failing to curb chaos at IDF bases

Police say in a statement that all protesters have been cleared from the Beit Lid and Sde Teiman bases where right-wing activists rioted and broke in earlier.

The police statement notes that “contrary to reports, no complaints were received about threats from military officers.” It also seems to take a swipe at IDF officials who reportedly said police, and not soldiers, should be blamed for failing to head off the chaos at the bases.

“We are disappointed by the attempts to criticize police and their work,” the statement reads.
