Israel's education ministry has shut down a religious high school in an ultranationalist settlement in the West Bank and has cut off funding to an adult seminary there, saying students and staff have been involved in violence against Palestinians and the Israeli military. | |
Education Ministry director Shimon
Shoshani told Israel Radio on Wednesday that what happened at the
seminaries in Yitzhar was "inconsistent with Jewish, democratic and
educational values." Israeli media cited Yitzhar officials as saying studies will continue at both the high school and the adult seminary. Source: Todayszaman |
