‘Yair Assaulted His Father’ – Ex-Security Chief

Former head of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s security team, Ami Dror, revealed Netanyahu’s son, Yair, assaulted his father, necessitating intervention and forcing Netanyahu to leave for Miami, Florida.

These remarks were made in a podcast interview with the Israeli newspaper Maariv. Dror, now an entrepreneur and a leading figure in the protests against judicial reforms, who is also running in the Democratic primaries, discussed his years working alongside Netanyahu, revealing a series of what he described as “extraordinary” and “shocking” incidents within the prime minister’s family.

Dror stated that Yair Netanyahu’s departure for Miami “was not voluntary, but forced,” adding, “Yair assaulted his father. It wasn’t a karate punch, but a real assault that required intervention, and that’s what happened.”

Dror strongly criticized Benjamin Netanyahu’s personal conduct, saying, “Netanyahu has never been a moral person.”

He added, explaining: “Immoral means someone who eats at restaurants and doesn’t pay, passing the buck to others. This isn’t someone you’d want as a friend, and you can’t turn your back on them.”

He pointed out that these traits weren’t new, saying, “He’s always been like this. The position has exacerbated it for him, his family, and his inner circle.”

He went even further, describing Netanyahu as “a moral garbage dump,” and deeming his current term in office “disastrous” politically.

Sara Netanyahu is a kleptomaniac


Dror addressed Netanyahu’s wife, Sara, saying, “I’ve said it before and I stand by it: Sara Netanyahu is a kleptomaniac.” He added that he had seen gifts and towels disappear from hotels, emphasizing that “gifts given to the prime minister belong to the state, not the family.” He described her as “a wicked woman,” and said that Netanyahu tried to present her in the style of Hillary Clinton, “but she’s no Hillary Clinton.”

Regarding her influence within the Prime Minister’s office, Dror explained that Netanyahu initially created her power, but she later consolidated it, becoming the “real center of gravity” in recent years. He noted that she was the one who halted the plea bargain (a plea agreement), motivated by a desire to maintain her position of power and her conviction that her son, Yair, was capable of succeeding her.

In closing, Dror emphasized his stance on Netanyahu’s trial, stating, “Yes, I want him in prison, not out of revenge, but for the sake of justice.”

He added, “In a healthy country, a prime minister who accepts gifts and obstructs legal proceedings goes to prison.”

He also held Netanyahu responsible for the failure regarding the prisoners’ issue, asserting that dozens of prisoners could have been released alive were it not for political calculations and stalling tactics.

Occupied Palestinian Territories in Crisis

The Occupied Palestinian Territory is facing a severe humanitarian crisis, with both Gaza and the West Bank experiencing unprecedented levels of violence and deprivation.

In Gaza, following the collapse of a brief pause in hostilities in March 2025, Israeli forces resumed intensive bombardment while maintaining a complete blockade that has now entered its eighth week, preventing all humanitarian aid and commercial supplies from entering.

This has left Gaza’s 2.2 million residents facing starvation as food stocks deplete, bakeries cease operations due to lack of flour and fuel, and nearly 90% of the population remains displaced with critical infrastructure almost entirely destroyed.

A new U.S.-backed peace plan led to a pause in hostilities agreement coming into effect on 10 October 2025, raising cautious hopes for increased humanitarian access and a potential reduction in hostilities after months of relentless violence. However, despite the pause in hostilities, sporadic violations, limited aid entry, and continued displacement highlight the fragility of the pause in hostilities and the deep humanitarian strain that persists across Gaza.

Meanwhile, the West Bank has seen a dramatic escalation in military operations, particularly since the launch of “Operation Iron Wall” in January 2025, which has resulted in mass displacement of Palestinians and widespread destruction across refugee camps. Israeli forces have displaced approximately 40,000 people, with officials stating that residents will not be allowed to return for at least a year, while expanded checkpoints and military presence severely restrict movement between Palestinian cities.

International organisations and UN bodies have expressed increasing concern about systematic violations of international humanitarian law in the West Bank, including accelerating settlement expansion, land reclassification and forced displacement that multiple observers warn are driving de facto annexation dynamics.

These concerns have intensified following the International Court of Justice’s 2024 advisory opinion on the illegality of the prolonged occupation and the Israeli authorities’ security cabinet decisions of 8 February 2026 expanding civil and administrative control over West Bank land and governance.
