Protesters locked the gate to the parking area of Justice Minister Yariv Levin's building in Modiin, reportedly in response to Levin's driver locking Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara out of a shared office. Residents quickly broke the chains, but the incident drew attention to the escalating tensions between Levin and Baharav-Miara, following the government's attempt to fire her and a subsequent court order preventing her removal. Levin is considering filing a police complaint, and security around him has been increased. The opposition has petitioned the court to block Levin from interfering with Baharav-Miara's work, while legal and political figures have condemned Levin's actions.
