A significant dispute has erupted within the Israeli Police's Spokesperson Unit, stemming from alleged election-related briefings that have created a tense atmosphere. The conflict involves Police Spokesperson Arie Doron and several other spokespersons, leading to shouting matches and accusations, according to reports from Friday.
The controversy intensified following harsh criticism from Police Commissioner Dany Levy directed at Doron. Levy's criticism was reportedly in response to briefings that undermined the police force.
In an effort to address the situation, Doron is attempting to reassign his deputy, Mirit Ben Mayor, and the spokesperson for the Investigations Division, Mark Engert. Doron suspects they are briefing on behalf of Boaz Balt, the head of the Investigations Division, and are downplaying significant news regarding a bribery investigation in the southern region.
During a heated exchange on Thursday, Doron confronted spokespersons, demanding to know how such damaging briefings against the Police Commissioner could be issued, calling it irresponsible. One spokesperson countered that Doron himself was the primary source of the briefings and was reacting to pressure from the Commissioner.
