The prime minister's new media adviser, Topaz Locke, took responsibility for his banned release from solitary confinement on Saturday night, saying "I should have saved more."

Locke went out with another Netanyahu spokesman, Ofer Golan, to document the demonstrations in front of the Prime Minister's House in Jerusalem - but due to his participation in the Prime Minister's trip to Washington last week, he had to stay in isolation.

He explained that the Ministry of Health had changed the guidelines and that he had initially been told he was exempt from isolation, as other flight attendants had been told.

However, Luke added that he understands the mistake and said that next time he will adhere to the requirements, "as easy as severe".

Another Netanyahu adviser, the deputy head of the National Security Council, Reuven Ezer, also violated the isolation directive. The Haaretz website reported that Ezer made purchases on Friday near his place of residence in Mevaseret Zion. In his case, this is a second violation of the directives: With the arrival of Netanyahu's delegation to Lara: B, Ezer went for a morning run and violated the entourage's request to stay at the hotel.

After the first violation, the Netanyahu bureau reported that the procedures had been sharpened and Ezer had been reprimanded.

It is now said in the Prime Minister's Office: "There was an inquiry with Ezer.

He noted that the announcement by the Ministry of Health of a change in the rules of closure and beyond isolation came only late at night on Thursday.

He was not updated and regretted it.

Ezer was called in to be arranged by his superiors so that such cases would not recur. "

At the cabinet meeting, Netanyahu protested that public criticism was focused on his advisers.

“Law enforcement should be egalitarian, but why does everyone suddenly talk about only one person?” He asked. 

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health updated tonight: "The corona tests of all members of the prime minister's delegation are negative. Therefore, anyone who met the outline and was not required for isolation is released. Anyone who did not meet the isolation according to the epidemiological investigation will complete 14 days of isolation."
