Peri: Haredi soldier attack should be dealt with harsh penalties
None
Knesset Committee for Promoting Equal Share of the Burden Chairman Yaakov Peri fiercely condemned the attack of a haredi soldier in Jerusalem's Mea Shearim earlier Tuesday evening. "Any attempt to physically or spiritually harm soldiers should be dealt with harsh penalties by the State," said Peri.
The minister further added that "such event should not be tolerated by the authorities. I ask the leaders of the haredi community to take responsibility before a disaster occurs." (Moran Azulay)
