Israel's Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir, was filmed confronting a terrorist prisoner during a visit to a southern Israeli prison. The footage, released on October 11, 2026, shows Ben-Gvir telling the inmate, "You tried to kill me. You fell on the wrong minister. I am not afraid of you or a thousand like you. God willing, we will execute you. You need to die. You need to be hanged with a death sentence."
The minister also threatened to further worsen the conditions for security prisoners. The confrontation occurred against the backdrop of Ben-Gvir's policy to tighten the conditions for security prisoners since taking office and his efforts to advance the death penalty for terrorists.
The release of the video comes after Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara instructed the Commissioner of the Israel Prison Service to prevent the use of prison visits and meetings with inmates for election propaganda. However, the footage published by Ben-Gvir was filmed about a month prior to this directive, not during a recent visit.
