In a recording leaked Monday, a suspended officer in Israel’s Shin Bet security agency is heard dismissing a judge’s request to explain the arrest of a Jewish person.

The recording is the latest in a series of leaks that began appearing on April 5 and which have hurt the reputation of the agency’s Jewish Department.

The leaks coincide with attempts by the government to fire Shin Bet Director Ronen Bar, a firing the High Court of Justice blocked last week, pending further review. The affair is part of a broader and polarizing power struggle between elected politicians and unelected officials, whom Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently called “the deep state.”
