Israel’s Attorney General’s Office on Thursday decided to authorize the police to summon Joint List MKs Ayman Odeh (Hadash), Ofer Cassif (Hadash) and Ahmad Tibi (Ta’al) for interrogation. Tibi and Cassif are suspected of “attacking police officers,” Odeh for calling on Arabs serving in Israel’s occupation forces to lay down their arms.
