Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir rails at the High Court for issuing an interim injunction on a law expanding his powers over police, while calling for the government to plow ahead with the judicial overhaul.

“Unfortunately the Supreme Court justices again proves they believe they are super-legislators, above the Knesset. I appeal to the prime minister and say, the time has come to pass the reform in its entirety, without surrendering or blinking,” he says in a video statement.
