Channel 13 News political correspondent Michael Shemesh is reporting on the recent leak of personal correspondences belonging to Jonathan Uriach, a close advisor to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The leaked materials, which have circulated online, include conversations Uriach had with political professionals, Likud party members, media figures, and senior officials within the Prime Minister's Office, alongside other personal content. Shemesh noted that Uriach has a history of destroying his mobile devices and communications during previous investigations, such as the "Bileh" and "Qatar-gate" affairs. However, in this instance, a severe security breach on his personal device, which remained unpatched, led to the widespread dissemination of the content. According to privacy laws, publishing illegally obtained personal material from a citizen's phone is prohibited, and therefore the specific correspondences will not be published.
