Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a nine-minute statement on Saturday evening accusing the IDF and Shin Bet of withholding critical information, following reports of a Hamas strategy document leaked by workers in his office.
“Suddenly, an investigation into just one leak emerges—the publication of a document exposing Hamas’ strategy to divide Israeli society,” Netanyahu said. “This document should have been on my desk. I need to make decisions based on such material, and I certainly should not be kept in the dark.”
He added, “This is not the first time vital information has been withheld from me, but now, of all times, they choose to investigate.”
