Ronen Bar Says He Will Sue Netanyahu Over October 7 Warning Claims
Published
A representative for former Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar said Monday that Bar intends to file a defamation suit against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Netanyahu's accusations concerning warnings before Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack. The representative said Bar would seek documents about information conveyed before the attack and ask aides from the Prime Minister's Office to testify. Bar accused Netanyahu of trying to divert attention as evidence about earlier warnings emerges. No lawsuit has yet been filed, and the report said Netanyahu's immunity leaves it unclear whether the proposed case could reach court.
