- The video depicts top legal officials being arrested.
The Chair of the Central Elections Committee, Deputy Supreme Court President Noam Sohlberg, ruled on Thursday that there is no grounds to disqualify an AI-generated video published by the Religious Zionism party. The video depicts the President of the Supreme Court Yitzhak Amit, Supreme Court Justice Daphna Barak-Erez, and Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara being forcibly dragged by police officers, with a scene showing them blocking a road.
Sohlberg rejected claims that the video constitutes a threat to senior law enforcement officials and violates the prohibition against disrupting the election process. "It is highly doubtful whether the senior officeholders feel threatened, or are expected to feel threatened, by this video," the judge wrote. He added that the video would be subject to the "voter's trial, not election law."
