MK Itamar Ben-Gvir (Religious Zionism) criticized the Public Security Minister and Police Commissioner's conduct regarding the disturbances in the Shimon Hatzadik neighborhood of Jerusalem.
"Minister Barlev and Commissioner Shabtai are sleeping on the job and abandoning the lives of the residents. Instead of learning a lesson after the repeated riots against Jews and the attempted murder of a neighborhood resident about a week ago, the police do not treat rioters harshly. The place for these terrorists is in prison."
