The Personal Security Unit has assumed responsibility for the security of former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot following significant failures by the Shin Bet's security department. The decision came after a protest outside Eisenkot's home and an incident where a woman entered his residential building without being screened. The Shin Bet held an assessment meeting and subsequently transferred the authority to the Personal Security Unit.
These events highlight a critical lapse in the security arrangements for Eisenkot, prompting an internal review and a change in operational command. The specific failures involved inadequate security measures during a demonstration at his residence and a breach of his building's security perimeter.
