Smotrich accuses military of ‘bold-faced lies’ to slander settlers

Religious Zionism’s Bezalel Smotrich accuses the military of “bold-faced lies” after the army said soldiers were assaulted by settlers earlier today, with one soldier lightly hurt after being hit by a car.

He claims such false statements were made “with instructions from on high to slander settlers.”

Smotrich cites a tweet from a reporter from Makor Rishon who says police sources told him that they were not aware of any claim that settlers ran over a soldier.
