Smotrich Threatens Total Destruction of the Palestinian Authority

Translation by SadaNews - Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich threatened on Sunday evening to work towards the destruction of the Palestinian Authority.

This came during his participation in the funeral of a settler killed on Saturday evening by a vehicle near the Homesh settlement in northern West Bank, amid investigations and the prevailing belief that it was not a result of a nationalistic attack.

Smotrich stated during the funeral, attended by dozens of settlers: "We will eradicate and eliminate the authority of evil and terrorism known as the Palestinian Authority... We will erase and wipe away the lines, the markings, and the letters, and we will reshape everything and settle ourselves in every space of our lands." This was translated according to his expression.

The family of the deceased called on Smotrich and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take serious action to stop Palestinian attacks.
