Benjamin Netanyahu fired a security chief over “distrust”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired the head of the Nation’s Security Service for his inability to anticipate the attack on October 7, 2023 by Hamas.

The Israeli cabinet met on Thursday night to officially approve the early rejection of the Ronen Bar Association, which was appointed in October 2021 for a five -year term as Chin Bet chief.

Netanyahu announced his intention to fire a bar bar in a video statement on Sunday, citing a “continued distrust” between the two men, whom he said “has grown over time.”

This move caused outrage and further inflamed the anti-government demonstrations in Jerusalem, who saw thousands of Israelis join their efforts, with protesters opposed Israel’s renewed attack against Gaza.

As of Tuesday, Israel has begun an intense wave of attacks against what they were saying that they were Hamas’s goals in the Palestinian territory, which put an end to the fragile truce, which has been held for two months.

The stake of the Shin is Israel’s internal intelligence agency and plays a key role in the war. His activities and membership are closely kept in state secrets.

D -B Bar characterizes the decision to expel him as politically motivated.

Prosecutor General of Israel Gauli Baharast -Miara – a vocal critic of Netanyahu, who herself faces the dismissal proceedings – claims that the D -n bar cannot be fired until the legality of this move is evaluated.

A letter sent by Netanyahu to members of his government before the meeting refers to a “constant loss of professional and personal confidence” between the Prime Minister and the Bar and proposed his term on April 20.

“The loss of professional confidence was consolidated during the war, outside the October 7 Operations (2023), and in particular in recent months,” the statement said, citing Hamas’s attacks against Israel, which caused the Israeli war.

About 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage during the attacks. Israel has reacted with a large -scale military offensive, which killed over 48,500 Palestinians, says Hamas Health Ministry.
