Jerusalem (AFP) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's dog was behind bars Saturday after biting a lawmaker and a cabinet minister's husband during an event to mark the Hanukkah Jewish holiday.

"Last night we lit the fifth Hanukkah candle with all the family present before we were sadly obliged to send Kaiya to quarantine as required by law," Netanyahu wrote Friday in a Facebook post reported by media Saturday.
