School to start with tolerance campaign

The first week of the upcoming school year will be dedicated to combating racism and encouraging increased tolerance, Education Minister Shai Piron announces at a Knesset session.

The educational campaign comes amid waves of online incitement following the June 12 abduction and killing of the three Israeli teenagers, and culminating in the revenge murder of 16-year-old Mohammed Abu Khdeir in Jerusalem.
