Israel Defies Supreme Court on Media Regulator | US News
Description
Israel’s government has defied the Supreme Court for the first time, rejecting its order to keep the broadcast regulator functioning despite falling short of its legal membership requirement. Led by Prime Minister Netanyahu, the cabinet argues the regulator is illegitimate until properly staffed, escalating tensions in the ongoing judicial reform battle. Opposition leaders warn this move signals a constitutional crisis, while President Herzog condemns the defiance as crossing a red line. Key ministers vow to use legal channels to overturn the court’s decision, potentially reshaping media regulation and deepening the rift between executive and judicial branches.
