A petition by non-governmental organizations for the Supreme Court to order the dismissal of far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has caused a rift in Benjamin Netanyahu's government and could plunge Israel into a constitutional crisis. Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara asked the prime minister to consider firing the minister, citing evidence that he allegedly interfered directly in police operations and politicized promotions within the force. Ben-Gvir has denied any wrongdoing and called for the attorney general to be fired. Some legal experts say that if the prime minister refuses to dismiss the minister as ordered by the Supreme Court, it could lead to a constitutional crisis in Israel.
