Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's family is seeking to continue state funding for security and renovations at their private residences, even if he leaves office, according to a Channel 13 report. The request, advanced by Prime Minister's Office officials on behalf of Sara Netanyahu, could cost the state tens of millions of shekels. State spending on the residences has previously drawn scrutiny, with over NIS 2.7 million spent in 2025-2026 on staff, renovations, and food for three properties.
