Shin Bet chief ‘sorry’ for breaking lockdown rules, ‘takes responsibility’

Shin Bet chief Nadav Argaman apologizes for hosting relatives at his home on Friday, the eve of Sukkot, against government directives.

A statement from Argaman says the guests included “his soldier daughter, after a month and a half away from home, and his wife’s daughter, her husband and their infant son — who is watched over by [Argaman’s] wife on weekdays.”

It says all those in attendance “stayed in the open air.”

Argaman says he “is sorry for the event and takes full responsibility for it.”
