Clashes Erupt Between Israeli Police and Ultra-Orthodox Pilgrims at Mount Meron

TL;DR Summary
Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir bypassed the police commissioner and directly ordered the Border Police chief to suspend officers involved in a clash with ultra-Orthodox worshippers at Mount Meron, violating a High Court ruling that restricts the minister from issuing direct instructions to the police. The police commissioner has referred the matter to the attorney general amid escalating tensions.
