a technical error

As I have said before, I never get upset or surprised by secular politicians not keeping Shabbos. Just the opposite, when they are careful, almost always out of sensitivity to their religious political partners, it is a nice thing, but not a given or expected.

The fact that Head of Opposition MK Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud) called Linoy Ashram on Shabbos to congratulate her on winning the gold medal in the Tokyo Olympics, and posted on social media the video of the phone call, does not bother me. His apology, or the Likud's apology, to their political partners also does not bother me - that is politics. They have few political partners right now and they cannot afford to let their last ones get or remain upset at them.

The only thing weird about it is the Likud's press release explaining that it was a technical mishap. A technical error. I am not quite sure what that means. The video guy pressed record by mistake? Netanyahu didn't mean to make the phone call but the phone went berserk and dialed on its own - maybe a butt dial or some water got into the phone? He pressed the "upload" button by mistake? What was the technical error? I would like to get more information about this.
