Times Of Israel: Outrage over tape of Shin Bet officer saying settler ‘shmucks’ held without evidence
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his hard-right coalition criticized the Shin Bet after a recording surfaced of a security official discussing the arrest of radical settler youths without evidence.

The Shin Bet acknowledged the inappropriate remarks made in the recording and stated that they would review the situation. Calls for accountability have emerged from various coalition members, including demands for the firing of the Jewish division head. This controversy comes amid ongoing tensions and violence in the West Bank.
