Foreign Minister Yair Lapid says criticism of the Shin Bet security service in the wake of a string of deadly terror attacks is “incorrect, unfair and irresponsible.”

Lapid tweets: “In intelligence work there isn’t and cannot be 100 percent success, but there are thousands of people in Israel who will never know they owe their lives to a professional, brave and sophisticated organization doing all-important work.”
