A source from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office reported that Shin Bet Deputy Chief S. will fill the position of the organization's head Ronen Bar, whose term expires at midnight on Sunday. According to the source, Major General David Zini will be appointed as the next Shin Bet chief, but since his appointment process will take several weeks, and to avoid a vacuum in the position, Netanyahu assigned the role of acting chief to Bar's deputy. This is 'for a period of one month or until the completion of Major General Zini's appointment process - whichever comes first.'
