TV report says a number of the dozens of experts ‘responsible for the development of Israel’s nuclear capability’ could quit atomic commission
Several senior scientists on the Israel Atomic Energy Commission are considering resigning to protest the judicial overhaul, Channel 13 news reports, a day after the government passed the first piece of legislation in its plans to weaken the judiciary.
The network described the scientists as among several dozen experts who are “responsible for the development of Israel’s nuclear capability,” referring to foreign reports about the Jewish state’s nuclear weapons arsenal.
The report, which did not cite sources, stressed there was no collective action, with the scientists deciding for themselves how they will act. It added that the scientists were still deliberating the matter with each other and their predecessors, along with “heads of the scientific-military community,” but have not raised it with any superiors.
