MK Aryeh Eldad (National Union) challenged Defense Minister Ehud Barak in a question in the Knesset Sunday on why Israel has not investigated whether or not Egyptian soldiers were involved in the recent terror attacks in Eilat. Eldad said that the defense establishment was required to follow up on media reports that said witnesses saw Egyptian soldiers participating in the attacks.
MK Eldad asked in his question to Barak whether Israel was “afraid of the revelation of the truth of whether or not there was Egyptian involvement in the attack, and if this was leading the government to prevent the truth from reaching the public.”
