  "account": "Shin Bet Director David Zini and IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir have urged the reinstatement of administrative detentions and the creation of a dedicated task force to combat nationalist violence in the West Bank. If current measures prove ineffective, administrative detention may be recommended, Zini stated. The military's resources for addressing this issue are limited, according to Zamir.\n\nThe call for action comes as Israeli security forces face multiple forms of violence and criminal activity in the West Bank. Nationalist violence has gained prominence in security discussions alongside ongoing operations against Palestinian terrorist networks. With the upcoming Knesset elections and the October 7 anniversary approaching, Zamir warned the Security Cabinet that Israel is entering a particularly sensitive period, citing a high number of threats.\n\nDuring the Security Cabinet meeting, ministers were briefed on Israel's three-year struggle since the October 7 massacre. Zini cautioned that Hamas is planning to kidnap soldiers near election time. IDF Intelligence Chief Maj.-Gen. Shlomi Binder reported that 95% of tunnels inside the yellow line have been destroyed, but Hamas continues to arm itself and show no signs of demilitarization.",
