Israel's National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, leader of the extreme right-wing "Otzma Yehudit" ("Jewish Power") party, announced that he had ordered the police to prevent any attempt to hang Palestinian flags on the country's streets.
"Today, I have instructed the police to prohibit the presence of any Palestinian flag or symbol that identifies with a terrorist organization or incites violence against Israel. We will fight against terrorism with all our forces," the minister wrote on his Twitter page.
