Justice Minister Yariv Levin addressed the decision to postpone the hearing on the petition regarding the Shin Bet chief appointment, saying: "To anyone who still ignores the fact that Justice Amit does not understand the boundaries of his role and the responsibility placed on a Supreme Court judge, I suggest reading the delusional decision he issued today. Justice Amit postponed the hearing on the petition regarding the Shin Bet chief appointment, with the pathetic and misleading excuse that an emergency situation was declared in the courts due to the war." Levin called on the government "to appoint General Zini as the Shin Bet chief without delay."
