Opposition leader Yair Lapid says there is “no dispute” that IDF Military Advocate General Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi had to resign over her leaking of the Sde Teiman detainee abuse video.
“She committed acts that harm the IDF and the public’s trust in it. No one is above the law. And that binds everyone,” Lapid writes on X, adding that an investigation must probe the leak, as well as the break-in to the Sde Teiman base by a far-right mob protesting arrests made due to the alleged abuse of a prisoner.
