Israeli military's former top lawyer arrested

Ex-military advocate Major General Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi was said to have been taken into custody after a search for her whereabouts amid fears for her safety.

Israel's former top military lawyer has been arrested after admitting leaking a video of soldiers allegedly abusing a Palestinian prisoner.

The leaked footage was aired last year purporting to show an incident involving soldiers and a Palestinian prisoner at the Sde Teiman detention facility in southern Israel.

Oh dear.

While it's likely that few people in the Israeli military care much about the Palestinian in the video, it's another blow to the strict Gaza narrative control imposed by Israel.

Can we expect to see her abused like Greta Thunberg who was only guilty of sailing on a boat headed for Gaza with humanitarian aid?

Expect a tsunami of international condemnation for arresting a humanitarian whistleblower.

Dream on.
