Knesset Constitution Committee Chair Simcha Rothman said the coalition had a “very successful” and “wonderful” term during a hearing with bereaved families, triggering outrage from opposition MKs and family members. Meirav Svirsky, whose parents were murdered on October 7 and whose brother was abducted and murdered in Hamas captivity, confronted Rothman, who asked for her to be removed and then suspended the session.
