Head of the Binyamin council Yisrael Gantz responded to the rape of the 7 year old girl, saying it was "shocking and doesn't allow respite. These are monsters and I very much hope they will be severely punished."
"It is important to clarify to Binyamin residents that, in contrast to mistaken reports and talk on social media, the despicable crime did not take place within the jurisdiction of our council."
