Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi has instructed employees in his ministry to disregard legal position papers from the Attorney General's Office, following the government's controversial dismissal of Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara. This directive comes in direct contradiction to a High Court of Justice order, which froze the attorney general's dismissal and explicitly stated that her legal opinions remain valid. The move has sparked immediate backlash from opposition lawmakers, who warn that Karhi's actions could trigger a constitutional crisis by forcing ministry employees to choose between obeying the minister or the court. Legal and political groups have responded by seeking court intervention, with calls for criminal complaints and contempt of court proceedings against Karhi.
