Report: Police not probing far-right mob break-in to IDF bases

Police are not probing the recent break-in to two IDF bases by a far-right mob, a senior police official tells the Haaretz daily.

Last week, far-right lawmakers and activists breached the Sde Teiman base after nine soldiers were taken from there by Military Police for questioning for allegedly abusing a Palestinian detainee.

They then broke into the Beit Lid base, where the soldiers were taken for questioning.

The officer says police have made no arrests and have no intention of probing the incidents, as the IDF has not requested any investigation.

Police say they are waiting for the IDF to supply evidence of a crime.

However, a security official tells Haaretz that police have ample evidence, including films taken by officers at the scene.

Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has been accused of ordering police not to intervene in the base invasions.
