An Israeli court has temporarily banned the use of crocodiles for prison security following a lawsuit from animal rights organization Let the Animals Live. The Jerusalem District Court blocked the initiative, which was planned for the 'Kziot' prison in the Negev desert, where terrorism-related inmates are held. Authorities wanted to place crocodiles in moats around the correctional facility. Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir criticized the verdict, stating that the court 'sided with terrorists' as inmates feared the crocodiles' presence.
