Deputy Minister Almog Cohen once again disclosed the name of a senior reservist officer linked to the "Brothers in Arms" organization during a Knesset session on Wednesday, despite a court injunction prohibiting the publication of the officer's identity. The officer is connected to the Asaf Shmuelovitch case, also known as the "Impostor Officer" affair. Following Cohen's initial revelation, the officer requested a publication ban, which the District Court granted two days ago, mandating Cohen to respond to the request within seven days. Nevertheless, Cohen disregarded the court's directive and repeated the disclosure in the parliamentary chamber. Further details are pending.
