The Bayit Yehudi party has filed a criminal complaint with police over alleged incitement by far-left Facebook users against chairman and Education Minister Naftali Bennett.

Bennett’s Facebook page was saturated with threats by leftists allegedly urging violence against the minister, according to a statement released Wednesday by the party.

The posts also encouraged violence against other politicians as well. The threats have since been deleted.
