Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has responded for the first time to the storm caused by MK Idit Silman when she claimed that she was attacked at a gas station in Modi'in but has not yet provided precise details of the case.
"Over the last few months, and even more so in the run-up to the budget vote, Idit Silman and her family have been going through a series of extremely severe pressures, slanders and attacks that few elected officials have experienced. I support Idit and all she is doing to get Israel back on track," Bennett commented.
