Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit issued a statement in support of the Military Advocate General, Major General Sharon Afek, after Education Minister Naftali Bennett said that IDF soldiers are more afraid of the Military Advocate General than senior Hamas figure Yahya Sinwar.
"The Military Advocate General, headed by Judge Advocate General Sharon Afek, is working tirelessly to provide the IDF with the legal framework necessary to exert its military power in order to defeat our enemies while complying with the provisions of the law. The attorney general fully backs their important work," Mandelblit said in a statement.
