האישור כבר ניתן, במשרד לשירותי דת זעמו - והרבנות התקפלה: "אין תוקף לתעודת הכשרות של צהר"

הערכה

The long running conflict over kashrut authority in Israel has reached a new flashpoint. Tzohar, a religious Zionist organization, was granted a historic license to certify kosher food by the Chief Rabbinate, only for the Director General of the Religious Services Ministry to declare the move invalid. The Chief Rabbinate Council then reversed course. The core question is whether the Rabbinate can maintain its monopoly over kashrut certification when internal government bodies openly contradict its decisions. The next development to watch is whether Tzohar challenges this reversal in court or through political channels.
