Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman on Tuesday welcomed a decision by the Ramat Gan municipality to operate a shuttle system at the municipality's expense on Shabbat.

"I congratulate the municipality of Ramat Gan on the decision to allow public transportation on Shabbat. This is done in the right dosage and with consideration. I hope that other municipalities will also go in this direction," Liberman wrote on Facebook.
