Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara faced strong criticism from Deputy Supreme Court President Justice Noam Sohlberg and Justice Yael Willner during a hearing on a petition regarding the leak of sensitive information. Justice Willner accused the Attorney General's representative of intentional deception, suggesting that statements made in court were not just inaccurate but outright incorrect. Justice Sohlberg questioned the Attorney General's lack of substantive answers and inaction, expressing concern that important facts and legal details were being concealed from the court. The judges emphasized the seriousness of the leaks, particularly their potential impact on national security, and suggested that avoiding an investigation could harm the country's security interests. The Attorney General has not responded publicly to these criticisms.
