Sharren Haskel Accuses Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar of Lying in Resignation Letter
Sharren Haskel, a Member of Knesset and Deputy Foreign Minister, sent a sharp resignation letter to Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar on July 15, 2026. In the letter, she accused Sa'ar of lying to her and to the people of Israel, stating, "You lied to me, you lied to the people of Israel. I am resigning from my position as your deputy." Haskel's resignation followed the approval of a law granting immunity from arrest to draft dodgers. The announcement came shortly after the legislation passed, signaling her strong opposition to the decision. The letter was published by N12 and accompanied by a photo from the Knesset spokesperson Noam Mushkovich. Further details about the resignation and the political implications are expected to emerge.
