    PM slams attempt to remove attorney general from probe

    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized, Tuesday afternoon, a petition to the Supreme Court demanding that Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit be prevented from continuing to engage in criminal investigations in which Netanyahu's name has come up.

    Addressing a court hearing, Netanyahu said, "This petition is a direct continuation of a real unbridled attack and propaganda campaign. This is an unacceptable attempt to put pressure on the attorney general."
