Shin Bet Director David Zini met with former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett in recent days, as reported by Yaron Avraham of N12. The meeting took place against the backdrop of intensifying criticism of Zini's leadership, including controversy over his meeting with commentator Yaakov Bardugo and allegations of differential treatment of Jewish terror suspects — matters The Zioneer has covered in recent weeks. Zini and Bennett discussed security challenges, particularly the growing threats against elected officials, both past and present. The meeting is part of a broader outreach by Zini to political figures across the spectrum, following previous meetings with opposition leader Yair Lapid and prime ministerial candidate Gadi Eisenkot, as previously reported by The Zioneer.
