Yifat Tomer-Yeroushalmi, former attorney general of the Israeli army, has been arrested in connection with a video showing violence against Palestinian detainees.

Yifat Tomer-Yeroushalmi, former attorney general of the Israeli army, was arrested following an investigation into the leak of a 2024 video that captures violence committed by Israeli soldiers against Palestinian detainees in a high-security prison. The announcement of the arrest was made by the Minister of Public Security.

Tomer-Yeroushalmi announced her resignation on Friday, and on Sunday she temporarily disappeared, which generated speculation in the press about a possible suicide attempt. In the context of these events, the Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, emphasized the need for the Prison Administration to take additional measures to ensure the safety of the former prosecutor in the detention center where she is held.
