An underground bunker to protect Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his family, and government leaders during a severe attack is being readied by Shin Bet, according to the Walla News site.
The bunker, constructed eighteen years ago, is strong enough to withstand impact from various weapons, has a command and control center, and is connected directly to the Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv.
The fact that the bunker, also known as the National Management Center, hasn’t been used yet in the nearly 10 months of Israel’s war with Hamas until now is an indication that Israel’s security forces are taking Iran’s threat of a revenge attack against Israel seriously.
After the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh last week in Tehran, Iran has threatened a severe retaliatory attack against Israel.
