Shas MK Moshe Arbel begins shouting in the middle of the High Court hearing over the legality of Shas chief Aryeh Deri’s appointment as health and interior minister.

Arbel interrupts the comments of a petitioner in the case, shouting that “I oppose the lies that are being said here over and over again.”

Supreme Court President Esther Hayut reprimands Arbel for his interruption, saying: “We speak only with permission here.”
