Two senior officers in the Israel Police said Monday that they will be leaving the force, in what some suggest is the first of a wave of resignations over last week’s nomination of Border Police chief Yaakov (Kobi) Shabtai to serve as the next commissioner of police.
Superintendents Yossi Bachar and Einat Gil-Tzubari informed interim police chief Motti Cohen of their intention to resign, due to “no longer feeling challenged,” Channel 12 reported.
