Senior security official says he ‘failed’ to protect both Israelis, Palestinians

A senior security official with responsibility for West Bank security acknowledges “failure” in ensuring security for both Israelis and Palestinians, after two Palestinian shooting attacks and a settler attack on Palestinians.

I am responsible for the security of Israelis and Palestinians,” the unnamed official tells Channel 12. “I failed before both.”

Other security sources tell the network that MKs and ministers voicing support for radical settlers “are confusing the people on the ground. They need to decide if they are the law or not.”
