|
The Ministerial Committee on Legislation approved a bill by MK Zvika Fogel (Jewish Power) that will allow declaring crime organizations as terrorist organizations in cases where the organization's activities cross the boundary of organized crime and threaten the security of state institutions and elected officials. The law establishes that the Minister of National Security, with the approval of the Defense Minister, can declare a crime organization as a terrorist organization by decree. Following the ministerial committee's approval, the bill will be brought for a preliminary vote in the Knesset plenum.
