Alexandra Krushinsky, chairwoman of the Union of Academics in Social Sciences and Humanities (MAHAR), was removed from her position. In an interview with Kan News, she attacked Histadrut chairman Arnon Bar David, claiming he demands absolute obedience: 'He wants everyone to do only what he says, and everyone must fall in line with him 100%.' According to her, one of the main reasons for her dismissal was her refusal to work with insurance agent Ezra Gabai, who is linked to a corruption scandal in the Histadrut. Krushinsky also criticized the local government wage agreement, which she said benefits the administrative ranking but is less favorable for academics. She claimed Bar David established a committee to examine the future of MAHAR, aiming to reduce its powers. The Histadrut denied her allegations, calling them 'false, baseless, and disconnected from reality.'
