Justice Minister Yariv Levin extends the voting hours for the election of the new head of the Israel Bar Association until 8 p.m. The original closing time was 5 p.m. in most places.
The move comes after the association sent a second “urgent” appeal to him amid long lines and reports of voting delays in the tightly charged election.
Levi agrees to the extension on condition that it is done in an “equal way” and applies to all ballot booths across the country.
