A compromise was reached Monday in a dispute between MK Simcha Rothman (Religious Zionism) and MK Yasmin Fridman (Yesh Atid) over a cup bearing the Attorney General's name. According to a report by Amit Segal (N12), a second cup of Fridman's has been placed alongside Rothman's, resolving the incident that began with a reported clash yesterday.
The compromise follows a reported clash yesterday in which Fridman allegedly took the Attorney General's cup from Rothman's desk. The incident, first reported by N12's Amit Segal, has now been resolved with the addition of a second cup belonging to Fridman, placed alongside Rothman's original one. The context of the dispute remains unclear, but the agreement appears to have de-escalated the parliamentary episode.
