Channel 14 aired footage presented as exclusive of former Military Advocate General Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, but viewers revealed it was a case of mistaken identity. The woman filmed refused to answer, and the channel aired it anyway. The incident caused embarrassment.

Channel 14 aired footage presented as exclusive and special, showing the channel's investigator Meir Shamshov questioning a woman presented as the former Chief Military Prosecutor, Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi. The woman refused to answer the questions and said she did not wish to comment. Despite this, the channel chose to air the segment. Shortly after the broadcast, social media users noticed that the woman filmed was not Tomer-Yerushalmi at all, and the footage became an embarrassing case of mistaken identity. User Avishai Grinzaig wrote on X that this is not Tomer-Yerushalmi, and that the channel "decided to fall on some random woman on the street and ask her about her plea deal." The article reports on the incident and notes the users' reactions, but does not include an official response from the channel or the woman mistakenly identified.
