In a Knesset session Monday, MK Yitzhak Pindrus (United Torah Judaism) suggested that opposition lawmakers and protesters blocking roads should be shot, according to The Jerusalem Post. The remark escalated Pindrus's earlier comments from the same day, in which he repeated a call to shoot MK Naama Lazimi in the legs and specified 'start with Lazimi.' MK Adi Ezuz (Together) turned the criticism back on Pindrus, noting that by his logic, UTJ Chairman Yitzhak Goldknopf should also be shot in the legs.
