National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir confirms a Channel 12 report that he plans to appoint bereaved families as the official inspectors of security prisoners in Israeli prisons, replacing professional oversight personnel, according to the minister's statement aired on the program.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir confirmed a Channel 12 report that he intends to appoint bereaved families — families of victims of Palestinian terrorism — as the official inspectors of security prisoners held in Israeli prisons, replacing professional supervisory personnel. The confirmation, attributed to the minister, was aired on the 'Merkazit' edition of Channel 12 news. Critics have previously described the move as 'deranged' and politically charged, as reported by The Zioneer earlier this morning (07:36 Jerusalem). The decision has not yet been formally published in official government or prison service orders, and the timeline for implementation remains unclear. The Israel Prison Service has not issued a public response.
