Israel rejects claims that Mossad backed nationwide protests

Israel’s government has rejected claims raised in documents allegedly leaked from the Pentagon that leaders of its foreign intelligence service, Mossad, had supported nationwide protests against a proposed overhaul of Israel’s judiciary.

The New York Times on Saturday published an assessment it attributed to a central intelligence update from March 1 that Mossad leadership had encouraged its staff and Israeli citizens to join the mass protests. The newspaper said that while the leaked documents seemed authentic, it did not mean they were accurate.
