Likud activist ordered to pay damages to 4 anti-government protesters after posting their phone numbers online

The Tel Aviv Magistrate’s Court has accepted a lawsuit against Likud activist Ronit Levi, known online as “Ronit the Bibistit,” which accused her of slander and injury to privacy, after she posted the phone numbers of four leading anti-government protesters online and encouraged her followers to call and harass them.

The court orders Levi to pay the activists who sued her — Shikma Bresler, Moshe Radman, Ami Dror, and Oren Shvil — NIS 140,000.

After Levi posted their phone numbers on X, she encouraged her thousands of social media followers to call them and send messages, asking to buy various food items from them, despite none of them working in food sales.

“The plaintiffs, who are not engaged in the supply of products and services, and whose ‘sin’ is their part in protesting against government policy, found themselves severely harassed and even humiliated, in dozens or perhaps more of the phone calls and messages they received,” wrote the judge in his ruling, Ynet reports.

Levi responds on X, writing: “You won’t defeat me, you won’t shut me up. I will continue to fight for my camp. For the truth and for justice.”
