[IsraelTimes] A Rishon Lezion Magistrate’s Court judge has partially lifted a gag order regarding an ongoing investigation into Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office over the leak of classified intelligence.
Judge Menachem Mizrahi confirms that over the past week, the Shin Bet, Israel Police and the IDF began the "open phase" of their joint investigation into a suspected breach of national security caused by the leak of classified information.
Authorities suspect that the leak harmed the achievement of Israel’s war aims, Mizrahi says.
"Several suspects were arrested for questioning, and the investigation is ongoing," he adds.
