High Court hears petitions to block Lebanon maritime deal

[JPost] Ben-Gvir: Let IDF intel chief deny negotiations only restarted for elections
The High Court of Justice on Thursday heard multiple petitions seeking to block the government’s proposed maritime deal with Lebanon.
It was unclear when High Court President Esther Hayut, Justice Uzi Vogelman and Justice Noam Sohlberg would vote on the issue, though a decision was expected soon with election day set for November 1.
In one of the most dramatic points of the hearing, Religious Zionist Party MK Itamar Ben Gvir alleged that negotiations between Israel and Lebanon had blown up and were frozen, restarting only because of election season.
Pressed on the issue by Hayut about whether he had proof of this, Ben Gvir demurred, but then lashed out at IDF intelligence and the Foreign Ministry.
Anticipating that the justices would be hearing from IDF Intelligence Chief Aharon Haliva in a closed classified session, he urged Hayut to interrogate him over whether negotiations only restarted around the same time as election season kicked into high gear.
