None
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday evening in a video that protesters around the country should stop blocking major roads, and that the problems the Ethiopian community is facing need to be solved while respecting the law.
"We all mourn the tragic death of the teen Solomon Tekah, " said Netanyahu. "We embrace the family. We embrace the Ethiopian community. These are not empty words. We know there are problems that need solving, and we need to work hard to solve them, but I ask one thing of you — stop blocking roads."
"We are a country with a rule of law," continued the prime minister. "We won't tolerate the blocking of roads. I ask of you, let us solve problems together while respecting the law."
