Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu plans to remove Ronen Bar, the director of the country's internal security service, the Shin Bet, due to ongoing distrust. Bar has criticized the government's handling of failures that led to a massacre in 2023. Israel's attorney general has raised concerns about the legality and conflict of interest surrounding the dismissal. However, the justice minister argues that the government has the authority to terminate the head of the agency before the end of their term.
