The IDF Chief Prosecutor Major-General Dan Efroni is planning to launch an investigation at the behest of the state prosecutor surrounding alleged incitement against the military. The case pertains to recent internet posts, over recent weeks, targeting IDF officer and senior military officials for their involvement in operations that led to the death of Arabs.

Photos of some of the officers are posted on the internet alongside the insults and accusations, and the prosecutor fears the situation may be escalating from insults to threats against the lives of those involved along with threats against their family members.
