The Knesset has passed a law allowing the government to deport the family members of terrorists who are Israeli citizens. The legislation, sponsored by Likud MK Hanoch Milwidsky, gives the interior minister the power to expel a first-degree relative of someone who carried out an attack if they had advance knowledge and failed to report it or expressed support for terrorism. The bill applies to Israeli citizens, who would retain their citizenship even after being expelled. Concerns have been raised by the Justice Ministry and the Attorney General's Office about the deportation destinations and the length of time individuals would be sent away for.
