Meretz MK: 13-year-old should have been arrested, not killed

MK Esawi Freige (Meretz), addressed the shooting of a 13-year-old Palestinian girl who allegedly attempted to stab a security guard on Saturday, saying that, "Even if she had a knife, it would have been possible to arrest a girl that age instead of killing her. Instead of attacking the Swedish foreign minister and claiming that her comments are detached from reality, Netanyahu should check what's happening in his country and how children are being killed without a trial."
