The Zioneer reports that a criminal investigation has been opened against two senior officials in the Ministry of Transportation, suspected of simultaneously working for airlines while holding their government positions, in connection with a major aircraft incident.
A criminal investigation has been opened against two senior officials at Israel's Ministry of Transportation over alleged conflicts of interest connected to a recent aircraft incident, according to The Zioneer.
The probe comes months after Yesh Atid MKs petitioned the Attorney General to open a criminal inquiry into Dvir Rubinshtein, director of the ministry's aviation security operations center, over payments from FlyDubai—as reported by The Zioneer in October 2025. The new investigation now targets two unnamed senior officials said to have worked for airlines while holding their government posts.
The identities of the officials and the precise nature of the aviation incident have not been disclosed. Further details are awaited as the inquiry proceeds.
