Report: Litzman attended mass Ashdod funeral
Among the thousands of people who attended a funeral of a Hasidic rabbi in Ashdod against lockdown rules was former minister Yaakov Litzman, Channel 13 news reports.
Litzman, the head of the UTJ party, already caught and recovered from COVID-19, so would likely not be a health risk.
However, he would be the latest politician to be caught breaking virus rules. Earlier in the day, fellow minister Gila Gamliel came under fire for traveling during the lockdown and praying inside a synagogue.
Yesh Atid MK Mickey Levy has also caught heat for visiting relatives.
