Thousands of police officers and their families paid hundreds of shekels to attend the "NEXT" concert, but the intention of politician Itamar Ben-Gvir to speak at the event has sparked protests among some attendees. "We did not pay money to come to a gathering or an election assembly," stated some officers. Behind the scenes, there is growing discontent among many police officers and commanders regarding the possibility that a musical performance will turn into an election rally for a politician, despite his significant support among some in the audience.
