Opposition lawmakers on the Knesset Communications Committee are demanding that Sunday's planned vote on the media regulation bill be blocked, citing severe procedural failures that occurred during this week's deliberations, according to Israeli media.
Opposition lawmakers on the Knesset Communications Committee are demanding that the scheduled vote on the media regulation bill — slated to begin Sunday — be blocked, citing what they describe as severe procedural failures during this week's committee sessions. The demand, reported by Dafna Liel (N12), comes after a contentious week that saw opposition MKs ejected from a committee meeting on the same bill on Wednesday. As The Zioneer reported earlier this week, opposition lawmakers were physically removed from the committee hall after protesting that the debate was fundamentally flawed. Today's demand escalates the procedural standoff ahead of the planned vote, with the opposition arguing the process is illegitimate. It remains unclear how committee chair MK Shlomo Kara will respond.
