Facing pressure from the attorney general, Public Security Minister Amir Ohana announced Tuesday that he has nominated Border Police chief Yaakov (Kobi) Shabtai to serve as the next Israel Police commissioner, ending a two-year impasse.
In addition, Ohana said the current head of the Israel Prisons Service’s southern district, Katy Perry, will serve as the next chief of the IPS. She will be the second woman to lead the organization.
Both Shabtai and Perry’s appointments are subject to the approval of the government’s senior appointments committee as well as the cabinet.
