🇮🇱⚡- Israeli Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir has summoned the new Shin Bet Chief David Zini for a 'clarification meeting'.

🇮🇱 - David Zini, who's strongly religious and associated with far-right religious groups, was close to becoming a military secretary for Netanyahu last year. He was rejected in the final moment by Netanyahu himself, who disapproved of his strong religious beliefs.

Essentially, the appointment of Zini, like many other decisions, looks like an appointment made by his wife, and not the Prime Minister himself. Something Netanyahu has been criticized heavily for within Israel.
