Former footballer and reality TV personality Ohad Buzaglo was arrested on suspicion of assaulting his partner. The incident occurred early Tuesday morning around 12:30 AM at their shared apartment in Bat Yam. Police were called to the scene after the woman reported the incident, leading to the arrest and questioning of both individuals for mutual assault.

Following the investigation, Buzaglo was released under restrictive conditions, including a restraining order and a prohibition on contact. Buzaglo denied to Walla, who first reported the story, that the relationship was romantic, stating she is his best friend with whom he has lived for years. He claimed her behavior led to the police being called, adding that the situation was resolved and they are fine, and she will remain his best friend.

This incident comes amid a turbulent period for Buzaglo. He recently shared on Instagram that he had voluntarily admitted himself to the Abarbanel Mental Health Center, from which he has since been released. His stay followed a series of unusual public statements where he claimed divine revelations, identified himself as a prophet, and described experiencing supernatural events. He refuted claims of mental illness, asserting his sanity and even inviting psychiatrists to examine him.

In a separate interview with Mako, Ohad Buzaglo's younger brother, Assi Buzaglo, discussed Ohad's mental state, admitting he would have preferred to handle the crisis within the family. Assi criticized media outlets for what he described as exploiting Ohad's condition for insensitive interviews and making judgments without understanding the reality. He emphasized the unity and full involvement of all four brothers in supporting Ohad through this sensitive time, providing him with love and assistance.
