Amid fighting on Israel’s southern and northern borders, as well as ongoing attempts to open a front in Judea and Samaria, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir on Wednesday said his ministry was preparing for possible Arab riots in mixed Jewish-Arab cities.
During a visit to the western Negev city of Sderot, one of the communities attacked during Hamas’s Oct. 7 terrorist assault, Ben-Gvir announced he ordered Israel Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai to make preparations for “a scenario of Guardian of the Walls II, which I think is looming.”
