Mofaz says Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee must be convened immediately

Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee member MK Shaul Mofaz commented on the escalation in the south, saying that "this is the most serious escalation since Operation Pillar of Defense and it is a disgrace that the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee cannot convene and discuss the security situation due to internal intrigues within the coalition and the battle over the chairman's post."

"I have contacted the committee's chairman and demanded that he speak to the Knesset Speaker and order that the committee be convened immediately," Mofaz added. (Moran Azulay)
