National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said in an interview Tuesday evening that his policies have made Israeli prisons so intimidating that terrorists are afraid to enter them. The statement echoes his broader push for stricter prison conditions, including the reclassification of Arab inmates as security prisoners, as The Zioneer has previously reported. Ben Gvir has faced ongoing legal and political challenges over his management of the prison service, including a reported attempt by the Attorney General to seek his dismissal.
