Supreme Court Grants Netanyahu's Request to Delay Ben Gvir Dismissal Hearing — but Rebukes PM
בג"ץ קיבל את בקשת נתניהו לדחות את הדיון בפיטורי בן גביר - ומתח ביקורת
Summary
Israel's Supreme Court (High Court of Justice) granted Prime Minister Netanyahu's request to postpone the hearing on the dismissal of Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, scheduling it for next month. However, the justices sharply criticised Netanyahu, noting that the request came very late despite the fact that the court had issued its order before the war began. Netanyahu had argued the hearing should be delayed due to the ongoing war.
