N12 reports Shin Bet, police and prosecutors held meeting on election probe

What happened

N12 reported that the Shin Bet, police and prosecutors met on November 7 regarding the Shin Bet's election-interference investigation, and that police investigations chief Boaz Blatt directed officers to route election-related assistance requests through him. On the same day, protesters in Tel Aviv publicly called for a future government to remove Shin Bet chief David Zini.

Why it matters

The reported meeting and police routing order indicate that an election-related inquiry is no longer confined to one security agency and now involves coordination and control questions across the security, policing and prosecutorial systems. Public calls to dismiss the agency chief add a political legitimacy dimension to any next procedural step in the investigation.
