Knesset security officials have assigned bodyguard to Deputy Speaker MK Moshe Feiglin following the attempted assassination of Har Habayis activist Rabbi Yehuda Glick.

Due to Feiglin’s often-heard remarks and activism promoting freedom for Jews on Har Habayis, Knesset security officials have decided there is a need for additional protection for Feiglin.

Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein called on Knesset Security to remain vigilant and provide additional protection for any and all lawmakers deemed at risk of being targeted regardless of their political affiliation.
