Eight Palestinian Prisoners Put in Solitary After Making Cake To Celebrate Ben-Gvir's Possible Election Defeat
Ben-Gvir said prison staff found the improvised cake and moved eight prisoners to solitary confinement after they saved food for days.
- On Sunday, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir announced that prison authorities confiscated a makeshift cake at Lavi prison, alleging Palestinian inmates saved food to celebrate if he lost Tuesday's election.
- Eight prisoners were transferred to solitary confinement and referred for disciplinary proceedings after staff found the cake, with Ben-Gvir claiming they "hoarded the little food they had" over several days.
- The post drew significant backlash, with one widely viewed reply from user Itamar Greenberg writing that the message "sounds like a tweet from the Nazi extermination camps." The reply garnered about 195,000 views.
- Surveys published Friday by Kan 11, Channel 12, and Channel 13 show Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud bloc potentially falling short of the 61 seats required for a majority in the 120-seat Knesset.
- Voters head to the polls on Tuesday, October 27, to determine the next government, an outcome that will decide Ben-Gvir's political future and the composition of the new coalition.
