Yair Netanyahu, son of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has filed a NIS 500,000 defamation lawsuit against protest activist Ami Dror. The lawsuit, submitted to the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court, cites nearly 30 publications by Dror on social media and in the press, which Netanyahu claims contain false accusations, slander, and epithets.
Netanyahu's legal team, led by attorney Uriel Nizri, alleges that Dror, described as a political activist and member of the Democrats party, has conducted a systematic and ongoing smear campaign against Yair Netanyahu. The goal, according to the suit, is to damage Netanyahu's good name and public standing.
In his claim, Netanyahu explicitly denies several accusations made by Dror. These include allegations that he physically assaulted his father, fled Israel to evade criminal investigation, cursed the IDF, operated an organized network for spreading messages, was involved in leaking classified documents to the German newspaper Bild, and even acted in service of Hamas.
