Solberg orders Deri and Shas to remove video
Central Elections Committee chairman orders Shas and Aryeh Deri to remove a video featuring a religious soldier. The decision followed a petition by Eisenkot’s party
Assessment
The Central Elections Committee chairman has stepped into campaign content, ordering Shas and Aryeh Deri to pull a video that features a religious soldier. The move came after Eisenkot's party filed a petition, signaling that election oversight is actively policing what parties can broadcast. For voters, this raises the question of how far the committee will go in regulating political messaging during the campaign. Watch whether Shas complies quickly or challenges the ruling, and whether similar petitions follow against other parties.
