Knesset officer, Lieutenant Colonel Yosef Greif, ordered today (Wednesday) that security be assigned to former Shas chairman MK Eli Yishai, following threats to his life received on social media. In addition, a security guard was also assigned to Yishai's home in the Har Nof neighborhood in Jerusalem.
Among the threats Yishai received was a message that read: "I have your address, you will die.".
On Saturday night, the security establishment decided to also provide Construction Minister Uri Ariel with close 24-hour security.
About three weeks ago, a Knesset officer ordered close security to be provided for MK Moshe Feiglin. In addition, Edelstein asked Griff to provide a response to any Knesset member, from the right and left, who feels threatened and who professional sources estimate to be at risk. Fear of harm to him.
