Jerusalem, 11 July, 2016 (TPS) -- Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman on Monday outlawed the Palestinian group “Al Hirak AL Shababi”, also called the Independent Youth Movement (IYM).

The decision came after extensive information was gathered on the group, revealing that it is directed by the Hezbollah terror organization in Lebanon and by Iran, with the goal of carrying out attacks against Israelis and igniting a wave of terror attacks by residents of eastern Jerusalem and the Palestinian territories against Israel and the PA.
