May 28, 2024, 07:17 AM

Former Mossad Chief Yossi Cohen allegedly threatened former ICC prosecutor Fatima Bensouda in a series of secret meetings to pressure her into abandoning a war crimes investigation into Israeli actions. Cohen reportedly warned Bensouda, saying, 'You don’t want to be getting into things that could compromise your security or that of your family.' The threats included spying on her husband and family members to find discrediting material. This revelation is part of an investigation by The Guardian, 972mag, and Mekomit. Netanyahu is reportedly 'afraid' of the consequences.
