Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has adopted the recommendations put forth by Internal Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch and Justice Minister Yaakov Neeman regarding the treatment of extremist Right-wing activists who riot in the West Bank. However, he rejected their suggestion to define the rioters as terrorists.
A per the recommendations, arrest warrants issued against the rioters are to be carried out immediately, the violent activists are to be subject to trial by court marshal and IDF troops are to be authorized to perform arrests. (Attila Somfalvi)
