Israeli Reporters Boycott PM Netanyahu Briefing Over Selective Invitations

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has sparked a media boycott after selectively inviting reporters to a national security briefing. Several prominent journalists, including Or Heller and Itay Blumenthal, announced they would not attend the event due to the exclusion of some colleagues. Blumenthal stated he would attend if all military reporters were invited, noting he had many unanswered questions for the Prime Minister. The boycott highlights growing tensions between Netanyahu and the press corps, particularly in the lead-up to elections.

Israeli Official Demands Investigation of Haaretz Journalist Over Social Media Post

Haaretz journalist Yael Freidson is facing a demand for investigation after suggesting on X that she would burn the Chief Rabbinate's offices. The Director-General of the Ministry of Religious Services, Yehuda Avitan, called her comment "wild incitement" and requested police action. Freidson deleted the post, calling it a cynical remark to a humorous thread, but later challenged Avitan to address a halachic ruling permitting the theft of Palestinian olives.
