MKs Avigdor Liberman and Oded Forer filed a request on Saturday to meet with the soldier who shot the terrorist in Hevron. The Defense Ministry refused to allow the meeting to take place.

“It cannot be that Arab MKs, supporters of terror who work in the Knesset, to meet in prison with terrorists, but we are not allowed to meet with the imprisoned soldier. There is no doubt that this refusal stems from political considerations,” MK Liberman said.
