National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir sparked outrage after stating that his right to freedom of movement is "more important" than the freedom of movement of Arabs in an interview with N12 on Wednesday evening.
"I think [Defense Minister Yoav] Gallant is mistaken with his policy about 'the fabric of life,'" said Ben-Gvir. "My right, the right of my wife, of my children to move around on the roads in the West Bank is more important than the right to freedom of movement of the Arabs - this is the reality, this is the truth. My right to life precedes [their] right to freedom of movement."
