Israeli drivers demonstrating at entrance to Beitar Illit, organized by Mayor Rubenstein.

Jewish Israeli drivers demonstrated Wednesday afternoon near the entrance to the community of Beitar in Judea, protesting against the ongoing escalation of terror attacks on the Husan bypass road that leads to that community and Tzur Hadassah.

The demonstration was organization by the Mayor of Beitar Illit, Rabbi Meir Rubinstein.

The drivers moved their vehicles at a snail’s pace along Highway 375, honking their horns, to draw attention to the fact that the road cannot be used by most Jews, most of the time, due to the dangers they face from Palestinian Authority Arab terrorism.

Many of the terrorists who attack Israeli drivers in the area and have been caught were found to have been residents of the nearby village of Husan.
