The Chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Judge Noam Sohlberg, has ordered Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir to remove a video he published earlier this week. The video documented Ben-Gvir's visit to a prison, where he confronted the terrorist prisoner Hassan Salameh, alongside prison guards. Sohlberg ruled that the video's content constituted election propaganda, stating, "The Minister boasted about his actions, described his future political plan, and conveyed a personal message that only the Minister deters." Additionally, Sohlberg ordered Ben-Gvir to personally pay 20,000 shekels in expenses from his own pocket, with his party covering an equal amount, split equally between them.
