Security for Yair Netanyahu in Miami Costs Over 2.5 Million Shekels Annually
The head of the Israeli Security Agency (Shin Bet), David Zini, has decided to extend lifetime security protection to Sara Netanyahu, wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Additionally, their sons, Yair and Avner Netanyahu, will receive security coverage for five more years following the upcoming elections, according to a report by Channel 12 News.
The total annual cost of security for the Netanyahu family is estimated to exceed 4.5 million shekels. Specifically, Yair Netanyahu's security detail in Miami is projected to cost about 2.5 million shekels per year. Each family member is assigned four rotating bodyguards, each earning a salary of 100,000 shekels. The monthly expense for a vehicle and driver per protected individual is estimated at 30,000 shekels.
Overall, the monthly security expenditure for the family amounts to approximately 390,000 shekels. The report also highlighted concerns expressed by some Israeli sources about threats to the Netanyahu family’s safety.
