The Israeli Minister of Defense, Yoav Gallant , rejected the request of 50 members of the Knesset affiliated with the government coalition, including ministers, to cancel the administrative detention of two settlers who were arrested after the Hawara events.

Gallant confirmed in a letter he sent to them in response to their letter that the level of danger attributed to them was very high and that they planned to commit additional acts of violence. He was also quoted by the Arabic-speaking Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation.

Gallant added: "We must rely on the decisions and considerations of the security services."

He hinted that the activity of the extreme right is a disgrace to the entire settlement. As stated by the broadcaster.
