Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman has responded to the elimination of the terrorist who murdered Rabbi Raziel Shevach, saying, "The score has been settled, and I congratulate the IDF, the Shin Bet and the Yamam [police special forces -ed.] for a successful operation."
Writing on Twitter, Liberman added, "It was clear that it was only a matter of time before we would hit the head of the cell that murdered Rabbi Raziel Shevach of blessed memory, and I hope and believe that soon we will also lay hands on the murderer of Rabbi Itamar Ben Gal, may G-d avenge his blood."
