A man suspected of attempting to stab Israeli politician Yair Golan approached him in a threatening manner during a tour in Tel Aviv. Golan's security detail intervened, preventing the suspect from reaching him. During the struggle, a large knife fell from the suspect's clothing. Police were called to the scene and arrested the individual before he could act.
The incident occurs amid heightened security measures for Golan. His threat level has been raised to Level 4 out of six, considered high. Effective immediately, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) has taken over responsibility for his personal security, following a lengthy legal process.
In response to the incident, Golan stated, "Incitement and violence will not deter us. This is a direct result of the hate machine run by Netanyahu and his associates. I call on everyone who cares about security and democracy to go out and vote now, to ensure that the country we love so much returns to being a free and safe place."
