🇮🇱 Former Shin Bet chief sues Netanyahu

Former Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar has instructed his lawyers to prepare a defamation lawsuit against Benjamin Netanyahu. The lawsuit was prompted by the prime minister’s statement that Bar had known of a specific threat on the night before the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, but had not informed him. Bar is demanding the disclosure of documents, witness statements, and Netanyahu’s schedule before October 7.

Bar claims the opposite: According to his account, he repeatedly warned the prime minister about the threat and recommended reinforcing the border and restoring deterrence. His lawyers want to call employees from Netanyahu’s office as witnesses. Netanyahu rejects the allegations and says that Bar did not warn him of an immediate danger on the night of October 7.
