The Chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Judge Noam Sohlberg, has ruled that a video posted by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu constitutes prohibited election propaganda. The video, which showed Netanyahu in a suit standing before a fighter jet, reportedly addressed threats facing Israel. Sohlberg determined that the content, despite being framed within Netanyahu's role as prime minister, crossed the line into forbidden election campaigning.
The decision specifically targeted a video where Netanyahu, dressed in a gray suit and positioned in front of a fighter jet, discussed Iran. Sohlberg's ruling stated that this constituted "prohibited election propaganda," even though the video was presented in the context of his duties as prime minister addressing national security threats.
