Katz warns against Ra'am joining government: "Serious security implications"

In depth

Defense Minister Israel Katz commented on Egypt's outlawing of the Muslim Brotherhood movement and warned against Ra'am joining the coalition in Israel. Katz called for broad national agreement against cooperation with parties he claims maintain ties with Israel's enemies.

Katz said that Egypt outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood, while in Israel they want them in the government. According to him, the sister movement of Hamas leads to serious implications for Israel's security, and Mansour Abbas's party is ideologically tied to Hamas.
