Attorney General Tells Supreme Court Ben-Gvir Continues Undermining Police Independence

The Israeli Attorney General submitted an updated statement to the Supreme Court regarding petitions against National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. The statement alleges that Ben-Gvir continues to harm the independence and non-political nature of the police force. Despite efforts to establish agreed-upon procedures through four meetings aimed at formalizing a framework of principles, significant gaps remain between the parties. Furthermore, the statement reports additional violations of the agreed framework and a court-issued interim order by the minister. This update was filed on Monday as part of ongoing legal scrutiny of Ben-Gvir's conduct toward the police.
