Administrative cannabis fines extend to minors

The three-month exclusion of minors from the 2022 administrative fine regulations expired. From 16 February 2023 minors caught with cannabis for personal use received the same fines as adults instead of criminal proceedings; the justice minister declined to extend the exclusion.[1][2]

Listed for context. No score change is recorded for Israel here.
