Fox News
Israel has called on the Swedish government to step in to stop protests scheduled over the weekend where the Bible and the Torah are set to be burned.
"I strongly condemn the decision of the authorities in Sweden to allow the burning of a Bible book in front of the Israeli embassy in the country," he said in a tweet. "The State of Israel takes very seriously this shameful decision that damages the Holy of Holies of the Jewish people."

Other top Israeli officials "unequivocally" condemned the permissions granted during the planned protests, including Israeli President Issac Herzog, who said, "As the President of the State of Israel, I condemned the burning of the Quran, sacred to The Muslim world over, and I am now heartbroken that the same fate awaits a Jewish Bible, the eternal book of the Jewish people."
