The member of the joint list was blocked by the security forces on the way to the demonstration. • Violent exchanges took place between the parties. • A senior police official told Israel Today:


MK Ofer Kasif

(joint list) was documented confronting police in the southern Hebron Mountains. 

This incident occurred about a day after MK Ahmad Tibi was documented while preventing the police from detaining a suspect.

A senior police official told Israel Today:

This is the unfortunate behavior of an MK serving in the Knesset of Israel towards our police officers, who are doing their job faithfully. The documentation proves that an MK is attacking a police officer.

According to the senior source, the police are collecting all the materials surrounding the violent incidents that Knesset members have against police officers who have performed their duties, in order to examine the opening of criminal investigations against them.

The commissioner and the head of the PLO are expected to request the opening of a criminal investigation into assaulting police officers and interfering with the performance of their duties.

The Investigations and Intelligence Division is working to formulate an opinion that will be presented to the State Attorney and the Attorney General, in order to examine the opening of a criminal investigation against Kasif and Tibi.

Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked referred to the incident in a tweet she published.

"Police officers, Border Police fighters and all the forces that are in the area on Friday afternoon, to protect us all: I know how hard you work these days and how you divide your body between terrorism and the citizens of Israel," she wrote. "Do this sacred work and ignore people Forgiven like Ofer Kasif.

The people are with you. "

Police officers, Border Police fighters and all the forces that are on the ground on Friday afternoon, to guard us all:


I know how hard you work these days and how you divide your body between terrorism and the citizens of Israel.


Do this sacred work and ignore depraved people like Ofer Kasif.


The people are with you.
