Netanyahu slammed for sharing dubious, incendiary news about Arab soccer fans (Times of Israel)
An Arab Israeli football team has slammed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for sharing on social media an apparently false news story that claimed the club’s supporters disrupted a minute of silence held in memory of 10 teens killed in a hiking accident.
A spokesperson for the team said the prime minister was trampling on the bereaved families feelings and trying to divide Israeli society.
The soccer league and members of the opposing team all maintained that there had been no disruption by fans of the Bnei Shakhnin club during the memorial at the team’s home stadium.
