Israel Police’s Tel Aviv District Commander Amichai Eshed will give a statement to the media this evening, and is widely expected to announce his retirement from the force due to the decision to remove him from the post.
Eshed has said the decision to remove him was “politically motivated” by his refusal to take a tougher stance on demonstrators against the government.
