    Silencing the media is a much bigger deal than a government body not talking publicly about a military operation.

      I believe the term for that is a media blackout. Or silencing journalists.

      Netanyahu is demanding media silence from the ministers. In direct response to one of them admitting in a social media post that israel did the bombing.

      If they knew secret war operation details Netanyahu wouldn’t need to mention this silencing to begin, with since leaking that is already forbidden.
