Far-rightists barred from Israeli Arab town
Israeli police prevented two far-right activists from visiting an Arab town. Baruch Marzel and Itamar Ben-Gvir had planned to travel to Sakhnin, in the Galilee, on Tuesday to protest what they called illegal building by Israeli Arabs.
But the two ex-members of the outlawed Kach movement were stopped outside the town by police, who cited concern that the visit could spark Arab rioting.
Marzel and Ben-Gvir accuse the government of cracking down on illegal construction by West Bank settlers while ignoring similar violations in the Israeli Arab sector.
