Ministers to limit proposed soldier-filming ban to those clashing with troops

During the debate in the cabinet over a bill that would criminalize the filming of IDF soldiers in certain situations, proponents say they will compromise on the bill’s much-criticized restrictions.

The prohibition on filming soldiers will only fall on those actively clashing with them and attempting to obstruct their activities.

The bill is being advanced by Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman’s right-wing Yisrael Beytenu party.
