MK Miki Levy (Yesh Atid) threatened the coalition chairman on Monday, saying that once MK Moshe Segalovitch becomes Minister of National Security, Levy will invite him for questioning — a likely reference to a Knesset committee hearing. The threat comes amid a heated exchange over Segalovitch's anticipated appointment, which was previously reported by The Zioneer.
In a new volley in the ongoing coalition battle over the expected appointment of MK Moshe Segalovitch as Minister of National Security, opposition MK Miki Levy (Yesh Atid) issued a direct threat Monday afternoon to Coalition Chairman MK Ofir Katz. Levy warned that once Segalovitch takes office, he will summon Katz for questioning — likely in the context of a Knesset committee investigation.
This follows an earlier exchange reported by The Zioneer at 14:04 Jerusalem, in which Katz taunted Levy with the remark 'what will you do, a dungeon?' after Levy warned that Segalovitch 'won't forget what happened here' — a reference to the coalition's handling of security-related committee procedures. The Segalovitch appointment has been a flashpoint between coalition and opposition for weeks, with critics arguing it could politicize the public security portfolio.
