Israel's security agency, the Shin Bet, revealed on Tuesday that it had investigated over 20 separate incidents of classified information leaks over the past year as part of its official response to the arrest of a security official suspected of sharing information with unauthorized individuals.
In a statement, the Shin Bet said that the number represents a sharp increase of such incidents where "defense establishment employees leak classified material from security organizations and its information systems."
The goal of the Shin Bet's investigations was to "prevent the leaking of classified information to unauthorized personnel, in a manner that may endanger the security of the State of Israel," the statement read.
