 description: |- 
   EIC reveals a number of stories showing how the Israel’s Ministry of Justice, under the office of the Prime Minister Netanyahu, has weaponised legal strategies to secure impunity for violations of international law. Based on a leak of more than two million documents from the Israeli Ministry of Justice (MoJ), mostly covering the period from 2009 to spring 2023, the documents shed a new light on the legal strategies developed and implemented by Israel’s top lawyers. The leaked collection of documents of the MoJ have been indexed and made searchable for the public in the [Library of Leaks](https://search.libraryofleaks.org/datasets/33) by the nonprofit whistleblower site Distributed Denial of Secrets (DDoS).

-  The leak, for which an unknown group calling itself “Anonymous for Justice” claimed responsibility, was [first reported](www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israels-justice-ministry-reviewing-cyber-incident-after-hacktivists-claim-breach-2024-04-05/) in April 2024, but only outside Israel: a sweeping gag order prevents Israeli media from reporting even on the existence of the gag order, let alone on the content of the leak. Amnesty International’s Security Lab [concluded](https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/aug/17/israel-foreign-agent-law-leaked-documents) last year that “the files are consistent with a hack-and-leak attack targeting a series of email accounts” and “did not show obvious signs of having been tampered with”.

   A large portion of the documents originates from the “Department of Special International Affairs,” which was established in 2010 following a government decision and headed by Roy Schöndorf, a former military jurist in the international law unit who had previously developed legal justifications for extrajudicial killings. Emails show that on his side in the leadership was Marlene Mazel, who previously represented New York City in general litigation matters before moving to Israel and joining the ministry.
