The animal rights organization Freedom for Animals filed a petition to the High Court of Justice on Tuesday, demanding an end to the issuance of licenses for importing live animals by sea to Israel. The petition argues that the suffering inflicted on the animals during transport cannot be significantly reduced through regulations and oversight, and that the practice inherently causes unavoidable harm. The group says the petition follows years of public advocacy and failed attempts to achieve legislative change through the Knesset and government.
