Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThough the cabinet was ostensibly meeting to choose a new attorney general, ministers also spent much of the time talking up their brand-new commission of inquiry into reports that police spied on dozens of public officials, activists and citizens using NSO Group’s Pegasus hacking tech.

Police minister Omer Barlev, who just hours earlier announced the creation of a government commission to explore the claims, says he agrees with Sa’ar on the need for a state inquiry.
