Security has been increased at the Channel 12 studios in Tel Aviv following the early-morning incident in which a masked individual smashed the entrance door with a brick, according to journalist Amit Segal. The Zioneer reported throughout the morning that security footage captured the masked individual throwing a brick at the glass entrance of the News 12 building, shattering it before fleeing. The incident, first reported at 08:06 Jerusalem, was confirmed by multiple sources: initially as a discovery by staff, then by security camera footage, and later by surveillance footage published by the channel. By 08:06 Jerusalem, the Journalists' Organization had condemned the act and urged police to act. The vandalism comes after graffiti was sprayed against the channel last week, amid political tensions over media leaks, as The Zioneer noted at 08:06 Jerusalem. The identity of the suspect remains unknown, and police have been urged to investigate.
