A car belonging to a Jewish family in the village of Peki'in was destroyed by arsonists overnight Friday. Police have opened an investigation.
Peki'in was the scene last month of serious attacks against police by local Druze residents, ostensibly over the erection of a cellular phone antenna in the village. On Friday, several government ministers attended a conference in the village on the riots. Minister Ami Ayalon said at the conference that the riots were “the tip of the iceberg, and we must try to halt the slide into oblivion” the riots represent.
