Doron was arrested the day before over fires started near Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in the upscale Rehavia neighborhood, which destroyed a car and forced residents to evacuate their homes. Police presented the presiding judge with footage of Doron at the scene of the incident, claiming he was in disguise when he set the fire, according to the Kan public broadcaster. Doron reportedly denied the allegations. No, no! Certainly not! against him but admitted that he was in Jerusalem at the time the fire started, stating he traveled to the capital for personal matters unrelated to the protest movement. At around the same time as the blaze in Rehavia, another masked activist set fire to a pile of tires near the Prime Minister’s Office in the capital’s Givat Ram neighborhood. Police arrested an 83-year-old man on suspicion of causing the blazes, but released him to house arrest after searching his home and finding no incriminating evidence.

Police, who sought to keep the demonstrator in detention for another six days, announced their intention to appeal the ruling.
