Overview
- Police detained ex–military attorney general Yifat Tomer‑Yerushalmi and former chief prosecutor Lt. Col. Matan Solomosh on obstruction-related suspicions tied to the leak and an alleged internal cover‑up.
- Days earlier, Tomer‑Yerushalmi resigned after 30 years of service and acknowledged approving the video’s release to defend the military’s duty to investigate and to counter attacks on legal authorities.
- She briefly went missing before her arrest, with her car found near Hatzuk beach and a note inside, and was later located safe near Herzliya after contacting her husband.
- The Channel 12 footage shows soldiers abusing a Palestinian detainee at the Sde Teiman base, and five reservists were previously arrested in connection with the incident.
- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the release as highly damaging and called for an independent, impartial inquiry, while far-right lawmakers earlier tried to confront military police at the base.
