The Israeli security agency Shin Bet has prepared an underground bunker in Jerusalem for senior leaders to remain during a war. The bunker, connected to the Defense Ministry headquarters in Tel Aviv, is designed to withstand a range of weaponry. It is equipped with all means of command and control, ensuring operational capabilities. This preparation, reported by the Walla news site, is part of Shin Bet's efforts to ensure the safety and command capabilities of Israel's political-security elite during conflicts. The move comes amid concerns of an imminent attack and possible retaliation from Iran due to the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
