In November 2024, Shin Bet, following Ronen Bar's knowledge, launched 2 investigations. The first active the leak of IDF's secret plans to the German diary Bild. The second was related to Qatar's alleged financing of Netanjah advisors, baptized by the press as “Qatargate”. * According to the Reuters agency, it was these investigations that caused Netanjahu to begin to view the head of Shin Bet as a political threat,** and his relation had deteriorated rapidly. According to Bar's official, partially secret message made in the ultimate Court, the Prime Minister has since repeatedly demanded from him actions beyond the mandate of the service**: monitoring and surveillance of leaders and anti-government sponsors of protests, drawing up an opinion blocking Netanyahu's further evidence in his corruption trial, and besides halting the investigation into the financial connections of the government chief's associates with Qatar. **The key, as Bar claims, was, however, an oral command to take the side of the Prime Minister in the event of a constitutional crisis alternatively than the ultimate Court**. erstwhile Bar refused to comply with these demands, Netanjahu, on 21 March 2025, led to his resignation – this decision was subsequently frozen by the ultimate Court considering that the procedure was carried out with serious deficiencies and in the atmosphere of conflict of interest.
