An investigative report by "HaMakor" has revealed alleged corruption in the Ministry of Heritage concerning the clearing of coalition funds over the past four years. With 20 billion shekels on the table, the report suggests that individuals in uniform were dispatched to investigate a journalist while politicians allegedly concealed evidence and covered their tracks.
Mati Goldstein, owner of the production company "Mati Pro," who also broadcasts on "Galei Yisrael" radio alongside Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, is identified in the context of this investigation. Goldstein has previously filmed events for the Eliyahu family, including the launch of a book by the controversial rabbi, who is the father of the current Minister of Heritage, Rabbi Amihai Eliyahu of the Otzma Yehudit party.
