Israeli occupation public security minister, Yitzhak Aharonovitch, approved to ease the rules for permitting private 'Israeli citizens' to bear arms, under the pretext of 'terror attacks' defense, Haaretz reports.
Aharonovich promised Israeli's to prepare the official documents that will ease their permits to bear arms "in the wake of terror attacks." The licensing will let security guards in Israeli-occupied lands keep their arms with them even past their work hours.
Aharonovitch also promised extending Kibbutz in Israel, and the Israeli citizens licensed to carry a gun. In addition, all military officers will be allowed to posses arms, under the approval of their leaders.
The easing of permissions comes under the pretext of 'terror attacks,' when two Palestinians from Jerusalem on Tuesday attacked a synagogue, killing 5 Israeli Zionists, whereas the Palestinians were shot dead by Israeli police right away.
Other than easing gun control for Israeli's, Israeli occupation forces on Thursday placed concrete blocks at the entrances and exists of the villages of Sur Baher, Ras Al-Amud, Jabal Al-Mukabber, Um Tur, and East Jerusalem, leaving out one exit that leads to the road near Jabal Abu Ghneim near Bethlehem, forming a blockade and a curfew upon all Palestinians in East Jerusalem.
