Netanyahu Mocks Former Shin Bet Chief Over Defamation Suit

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly responded to a NIS 3 million defamation lawsuit filed by former Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar. Netanyahu dismissed Bar's claim of not having his personal number, stating Bar could have used official channels or security details. Bar's lawsuit argues that the Military Secretary's office, not his personal number, was the official communication channel. While Bar admits Shin Bet failures, he denies prior knowledge of the October 7th attack.

Netanyahu Admits Egyptian Intelligence Chief Visited Israel Before Oct. 7

Netanyahu Admits Egyptian Intelligence Chief Visited Israel Before Oct. 7

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Egyptian intelligence chief Abbas Kamel visited Israel on September 26, 2023, just over two weeks before the October 7th attack. Kamel's visit, previously denied, involved a brief stay and a meeting with an unidentified senior Israeli official. Netanyahu's admission contradicts earlier denials and his own past meetings with Kamel, raising questions about the intelligence shared and its handling. The article calls for a state commission of inquiry to investigate the events.
