Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered a halt to the recording of security consultations and cabinet discussions held in the underground operations center of military headquarters, Haaretz reported on Monday.

The outlet reports that the Israeli army complied with the orders and stopped using automatic recording equipment in the days following October 7.

Netanyahu reportedly preferred holding the meetings in his own office in Tel Aviv's headquarters to ensure he was not reliant on military recordings.

"In accordance with the provisions of the regulations for the work of the government, all government meetings and ministerial committees have recordings and transcriptions made by the Prime Minister’s Office stenographers only," the prime minister's office told Haaretz.
