Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir: 'Kill those in prison'

Israel's far-right Ben-Gvir shared a post on his X social media account following an armed attack in the city of Hebron that left 3 Israeli police officers dead.

The Israeli Minister stated, "The right of Israelis to live comes before the freedom of movement of Palestinian Authority citizens."

Calling for the establishment of more military checkpoints in the West Bank and for Palestinians to be prohibited from moving on the streets, Ben-Gvir demanded that the death penalty for Palestinians in Israeli prisons be added to the agenda of today's Security Cabinet, that more Palestinian land be occupied, and that settlements for Israelis be established in Gaza.

The far-right Minister also accused the Palestinian Authority, which he labeled as "terrorist," of "inciting terror and paying salaries to kill Jews."

Three Israeli police officers were killed this morning in an armed attack carried out from a vehicle against a car carrying Israeli police in the town of Tarqumiyah in the West Bank city of Hebron.
