Standing Together Protesters Enter Religious Zionism Headquarters

Standing Together activists entered the Religious Zionism party's headquarters in Shoham on Wednesday with red paint on their hands and clothing, protesting budget transfers to farms in Judea and Samaria. The activists sat on the entrance floor and chanted against Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and the government. The party said workers were instructed to remain inside and accused the group of trying to force its way in violently. Police arrived, and the activists then left; the party called for an investigation and said political violence has no place in Israel.
