A man from Jerusalem has been arrested after sending a letter to Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef, the former chief rabbi, in which he requested a religious ruling known as 'din rodef' against the attorney general. In his letter, the man expressed willingness to kill the attorney general if he received approval from three elders, stating that he would not act without such consent. The letter also referenced the 'mixed multitude' and accused them of defiling God's name through actions against the Torah world. Authorities are investigating the threat and the circumstances surrounding the letter.
