An unusual wave of resignations at the top of the Israel Police: four senior officers at the rank of deputy commissioner have announced their resignation from the organization in recent weeks, ahead of the expected round of appointments. The list of resigning officers includes Deputy Commander of the Judea and Samaria District, Deputy Commissioner Yishai Shalem; Deputy Head of the Training Division, Deputy Commissioner Noam Shekel; Commander of the National Police College, Deputy Commissioner Zvika Taub; and Head of the Elections Administration, Deputy Commissioner Eli Pinto, who is expected to end his role even before the elections. The round of deputy commissioner appointments was originally planned for April, but Commissioner Danny Levy has faced ongoing difficulties. The placement discussion is set for tomorrow, but the uncertainty led the officers to announce their resignation early.
