Edelstein removed from FAD Committee after sovereignty vote

Coalition whip Ofir Katz removed Likud MK Yuli Edelstein from the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee after Edelstein voted for a West Bank annexation bill that Likud boycotted. Katz's office also said Edelstein would be barred for two months from introducing private bills or speaking for the Likud faction in the plenum.
