06:47โขUnanimous Cabinet Terminates Shin Bet Chief
โจThe newspapers extensively report on the government's unanimous decision to dismiss Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar, who will end his role on April 10 or when a replacement is appointed (13tv, Davar, Israel Hayom, Kan, Now14, Srugim, Times, Ynet, i24NEWS, Kipa). Netanyahu claimed he had "lost basic trust" in Bar, directly blaming him for the October 7 failure (13tv, Kan). Bar refused to attend the dismissal meeting but sent a letter claiming the accusations against him mask "improper motives" (Davar, Kipa, Walla). Meanwhile, Egypt has reportedly expressed willingness to temporarily absorb 500,000 evacuated Gazans in northern Sinai (Jerusalem Post).
