Diplomatic Tensions Rise as Israel and Germany Clash Over Ambassador's Court Interference

Israel has lodged a formal complaint against German ambassador Steffen Seibert for attending a historic High Court hearing on the government's judicial reform amendment, considering it as interference in Israel's internal affairs. Seibert, who had previously expressed opposition to the reform plan, stated that he wanted to witness the important developments for Israel's democracy. Germany has emphasized the importance of an independent justice system and is closely monitoring the Israeli dispute over the proposed judicial changes.
