Shin Bet Chief Vows to Pursue All Involved in October 7th Massacre
The head of Israel's domestic security agency, the Shin Bet, delivered a stern message to those who planned and executed the October 7th Hamas attacks, vowing relentless pursuit.
Speaking at the Presidential Residence during the 2025 Shin Bet Excellence Awards ceremony, the Shin Bet chief stated, "To the planners of the massacre, to its perpetrators, and to all who lent a hand to the desecration of the honor and blood of the State of Israel, and to all who desire our destruction, we have one uncompromising message: there is no place in the world that is too far, there is no forgiveness, and there is no expiration date."
He continued, "We pursued, we are pursuing, and we will continue to pursue you until the last participant. The long arm of the Israeli security system will reach everyone who harmed us, in the depths of the tunnels, in hidden command centers, and in every corner of the globe."
The remarks were directed at Hamas operatives and anyone who aided them in the unprecedented assault that resulted in the deaths of approximately 1,200 people and the taking of over 240 hostages.
