Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman has rejected a request by right wing organizations to expel women from Machsom Watch from roadblocks and checkpoints where Israeli soldiers are stationed in Judea and Samaria

According to Hahadashot, the organizations told Liberman that after the murderous attack in Har Adar, that one of the organization's women shouted at one of the soldiers killed in the attack, in a manner that might have harmed his alertness. Liberman said soldiers "have a wide range of tools that enable them to prevent organizations' activists from violating the law and public order... and other tools that can be used In any case of disruption of operational activity."
