Shin Bet Chief Recommends Extended Security for Sara Netanyahu and Children
Shin Bet Chief David Zini recently decided to support granting prolonged security protection to Sara Netanyahu and her children, Yair and Avner. This move contrasts with the professional assessment that recommended security levels be adjusted according to changing threat levels. The decision came after significant pressure from the Netanyahu family’s close circle.
