Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich addressed the settler riots in the Benjamin region on Friday night, during which they threw stones at soldiers and attempted to run them over, saying: "The incident in Benjamin on Friday night will still be investigated and clarified. Meanwhile, what's clear - IDF live fire against Jews is a forbidden and dangerous crossing of a red line that deserves thorough investigation and personal conclusions." Smotrich added: "The IDF and the settlers are one entity. Anyone who raises their hand against IDF soldiers is fighting against the settlement enterprise, not for it. And still - live fire against Jews is forbidden and dangerous. The incident must be independently investigated thoroughly."
