Crackdown on cabinet tardiness leaves four ministers in timeout

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu enforced stricter rules on cabinet attendance by keeping four ministers outside for the beginning of the weekly meeting. The move followed warnings about absences and late arrivals, as Netanyahu expressed frustration over low attendance at cabinet sessions. Ministers Nir Barkat, Yariv Levin, Yitzhak Wasserlauf, and May Golan were left waiting for ten minutes, reportedly displeased with the decision. New measures include penalties for latecomers and absentees, such as restrictions on presenting proposals and limits on work travel funding.
