Court Orders Netanyahu Supporter to Pay Damages to Shkima Bressler
A court has ordered Esther Yohay, identified as a supporter of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to pay NIS 51,000 (approximately $13,800 USD) in damages and legal costs to Shkima Bressler. The ruling stems from a lawsuit filed by Bressler over a series of publications made by Yohay.
Bressler, a prominent activist and businesswoman, sued Yohay for defamation. The publications in question falsely alleged that Bressler had ties to the October 7th Hamas attack on Israel. The court found these claims to be baseless and damaging to Bressler's reputation.
The court's decision partially accepted Bressler's lawsuit, awarding her compensation for the harm caused by Yohay's statements. The NIS 51,000 includes both damages and reimbursement for legal expenses incurred by Bressler during the proceedings. Yohay has been ordered to pay this sum to Bressler.
