Netanyahu's Wife Threatens $1 Million Lawsuit Over Upcoming TV Report
Sara Netanyahu, the wife of the Prime Minister, has sent a warning letter to journalist Raviv Drucker and the "Mekor" (The Source) investigative program on Channel 13, threatening a NIS 1 million lawsuit over an upcoming report.
The report, scheduled to air Wednesday evening, focuses on Alon Haliva, head of the Prime Minister's Office security division. Netanyahu claims the investigative piece presents a distorted and false picture of reality, describing it as "a false report that completely distorts reality, and presents a false, biased, and defamatory situation."
The legal threat comes just hours before the scheduled broadcast. Netanyahu's letter asserts that the way events are presented in the report twists reality, labeling it not just inaccurate but also "biased and defamatory."
She is demanding NIS 1 million in damages and has directed her warning to both Raviv Drucker and the "Mekor" production team. The report on Haliva is still slated for broadcast on Channel 13 as planned, despite Netanyahu's preemptive legal action.
