For the first time in several years, the North District and Coastal Police District removed PLO flags in the northern part of the country, after they were hung on buildings and parking lots in the northern part of the country.
Because of the policy outlined by Minister Ben Gvir to the police, flags put up along Highway 65 near Wadi Ara were removed. In addition, police officers raided the Hadash party branch in Nazareth to remove flags that were hanging on the building. PLO flags have been flying over the building without interruption for years.
“Congratulations to the police commissioner and the district commanders for their determined and professional action. Our policy is sharp and clear on this issue, we will not allow flags of incitement and support for terrorism on any day, and certainly not on the Independence Day of the State of Israel,” said Ben Gvir.
