Instanța blochează paza cu crocodili în Israel

The Jerusalem District Court has temporarily halted the transfer of Nile crocodiles to Ketziot prison, blocking a controversial security plan by Minister Itamar Ben Gvir. This decision follows a lawsuit from an animal protection organization arguing for the crocodiles' protected status. Judge Avraham Rubin cited potential negative impacts on the animals as justification for the suspension. The Ministry of Environment had recently reclassified the crocodiles, allowing for their relocation. However, environmental groups oppose the plan, citing legal and ecological concerns. Despite the court's ruling, work on the prison's moat continues.
