Agriculture Minister Uri Ariel (Jewish Home) responded to the Prime Minister’s decision to bar Jewish MKs and Ministers from visiting Temple Mount.

Ariel said that “The announcement on the ban did not reach me directly, but rather came from the press. I will speak about this with the PM in order to receive some clarification. The separation between Jewish and Arab MKs is unacceptable and unbelievable. This will aggressively be made clear to the Prime Minister.”
