Justice Minister Levin against the law enforcement system: "Selective enforcement is a crime"
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Justice, Yariv Levin, attacked last night (May 28, 2026) the conduct of law enforcement authorities regarding communications advisor Yonatan Urich. Levin published a message of unequivocal support for Urich, claiming that the suffering caused to him and his family stems exclusively from his proximity to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
According to Amit Segal's report, the Justice Minister defined the case as "selective enforcement" and added that it is a "crime." In his joint statement with other sources, Levin declared: "Nothing can compensate for the suffering and pain caused to him and his family, just because of his work with Prime Minister Netanyahu."
The messages were published simultaneously by several media outlets and political Telegram channels, including YINONEWS, Israel News IL, Political Arena, and News Arena. These entities are known for a line identified with support for the government and the Prime Minister's Office.
Levin concluded his remarks by expressing absolute confidence in the advisor: "I trust in Yonatan's determination to bring justice to light." So far, there has been no official response from the judicial system or the State Attorney's Office to these remarks, which join a series of previous criticisms by the Justice Minister regarding the manner in which the country's law enforcement authorities operate.
