Activists from the "Justice for Amiram" campaign confronted Yoram Cohen, former head of the Shin Bet and current member of the Yashar! party, on Wednesday evening. The protest took place outside a private event in Holon, where the activists called out accusations against Cohen, including "fabricating a white case against Uliel," "violating human rights," and declared that he is "not fit for the Knesset." Cohen ignored the protesters and did not respond to their chants.

The demonstration highlights ongoing tensions surrounding Cohen's political role and his past security service, with the activists demanding accountability for alleged human rights violations. The protest was organized by the Justice for Amiram campaign, which seeks to address grievances related to security and legal issues. Cohen's silence during the protest suggests he chose not to engage publicly with the accusations at this event.

No further incidents were reported, and the event concluded without escalation. The activists continue to campaign against Cohen's political legitimacy, emphasizing their view that his actions disqualify him from serving in the Israeli parliament.
