SUMMARY

A five-member ministerial committee, chaired by Amichai Chikli (Likud), unanimously recommended dismissing Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara on Sunday, with a cabinet vote set for July 27. The committee, including Bezalel Smotrich (National Religious Party–Religious Zionism), Itamar Ben Gvir (Otzma Yehudit), Gila Gamliel (Likud), and Michael Malkieli (Shas), accused Baharav-Miara of obstructing government policies, selectively enforcing laws, and refusing to represent the government in court. Baharav-Miara also ordered a 2024 investigation into Sara Netanyahu for alleged harassment of political opponents and a witness in Benjamin Netanyahu’s corruption trial, intensifying tensions.
