Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday commented on the suspected gang rape of a 16-year-old girl in an Eilat hotel, describing it as "horrid" and a "crime against humanity."
"My wife and I read this morning on the suspected gang rape in Eilat. It is horrid, there are no other words to describe it. It is not just a crime against this girl, but a crime against humanity deserving of every condemnation and justice," Netanyahu said.
