🗞️ In-depth summary

Recent Hebrew media reports indicate that Iran has intensified its efforts to physically harm current and former senior Israeli officials, including incumbent ministers. The security establishment, including the Shin Bet, has increased security for these individuals, identifying a push by Iran for a "strategic psychological achievement." This heightened threat reportedly led Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to depart for the US from Nevatim Air Force base instead of Ben Gurion Airport, and to hold a cabinet meeting in a secure underground facility. Additionally, the Mossad recently announced it foiled an Iranian intelligence network that used criminal organizations to target Israeli officials. These developments occur amid ongoing tensions and recent US airstrikes against Iran.
