out of the cherished sanctuary of an Israeli military chief-of-staff-turned-defense minister can’t be explained away — certainly not by a stream of lame excuses emanating from the Shin Bet security service.

Omry Goren Gorochovsky, 37, had been at it for at least three years from April 2019 before he was discovered. He was working at the time as cleaner at the home of the ex-chief of staff Benny Gantz. The military chief had just launched into politics as leader of the opposition Blue-White party, when his mobile was invaded by Iran-backed hackers. This prompted the taunt that a leader who couldn’t protect his own phone, could not aspire to protect the country.
