The Shin Bet security agency has filed a complaint with the Chief Military Censor against Israel's Channel 12 news, alleging that the network's reporting on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to the United Arab Emirates constituted a severe censorship violation and endangered the prime minister, his wife, his entourage, and forces on the ground.
The Shin Bet stated that the report, which was broadcast while Netanyahu's plane was still far from Israel, also exposed the agency's operational methods and jeopardized future operations. The Mossad intelligence agency also characterized the publication as a serious security threat.
The complaint centers on the timing of the report, which the Shin Bet claims revealed sensitive operational details prematurely. The specific nature of the alleged security risk and the methods exposed were not detailed in the initial report.
