MK Sukkot Destroys Terrorist Memorials Near Yitzhar

MK Tzvi Sukkot, chairman of the Knesset Education Committee and the Judea and Samaria Affairs Subcommittee, arrived armed with a sledgehammer at the Palestinian Arab villages of Madama and Burin near the Jewish community of Yitzhar on Tuesday morning, according to reports. Sukkot reportedly worked to destroy monuments memorializing terrorists at the site. He said he took matters into his own hands after the defense establishment failed to act on his request to dismantle memorials honoring those who murdered Jews. No further details on the scope of the demolition or any official response from Israeli authorities were immediately available.
