Sohlberg’s security boosted after panel recommends Shin Bet protection for Eisenkot

Noam Sohlberg, Deputy President of the Supreme Court and chair of the Central Elections Committee, had his personal security increased following a recommendation by the Advisory Committee for Personal Security. This decision followed similar actions taken for Gadi Eisenkot, a prominent rival to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the upcoming elections, who was recommended for Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) protection after the agency initially refused. Meanwhile, the committee declined to recommend Shin Bet protection for Yair Golan, chairman of the left-wing Democrats Party, which accused the committee of making politically motivated decisions. The Democrats Party claimed that two of the three committee members were political appointees of Netanyahu and criticized the decision as part of a broader campaign against opposition figures.

The framing suggests a critique of the current政府's偏

Professional committee recommends Shin Bet provide Eisenkot with armed security

A professional committee has recommended that the Shin Bet intelligence agency provide former defense minister Moshe Eisenkot with armed security. The recommendation was made by a group of ministers led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who will make the final decision.
