Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman on Wednesday instructed the defense establishment to sanction the family of a Palestinian teenager arrested for assaulting IDF soldiers.

Ahed Tamimi, 16, was arrested on Dec. 15 after she was caught on film attacking IDF soldiers trying to quell a protest in the village of Nabi Saleh.

She was indicted before the Judea Military Court last week on two counts of assault and 10 counts of rioting, hindering security forces in the line of duty and incitement to violence.

Tamimi's mother, Nariman, and cousin, Nur, have also been indicted for incitement.

Lieberman has ordered to revoke the entry permit to Israel from 20 of Tamimi's relatives, over what he called the entire family's involvement in inciting violence and terrorism.

Lieberman also signed an order preventing the girl's father, Bassem, who has been arrested dozens of time for rioting, from leaving Israel.

Dealing with Tamimi and her family has to be severe, exhaust all legal measures and generate deterrence, the defense minister said.

He stressed that his office would not tolerate incident where Palestinian protesters accost Israeli soldiers and incite terrorism.
