Former police chief Roni Alsheich alleges that officers in Israel are given quotas for the number of people to detain at protests, a claim denied by the police force. Alsheich also criticizes National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir for politicizing the police force and promoting officers who align with his policies. The Israel Police denies Alsheich's accusation and maintains that it is an apolitical body. Alsheich's allegations come amid concerns about the politicization of the police force and intervention by Ben Gvir in operational matters.
