Netanyahu Affirms Excellent Health and Dismisses Media Reports in Podcast Interview

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently addressed rumors about his health in a podcast interview with Avi Shushan. When directly asked about his condition, Netanyahu stated that he is in excellent health and described his daily routine, including exercising, sleeping, and eating. He acknowledged wanting more sleep but emphasized that overall he is doing well.

During the conversation, Shushan complimented Netanyahu on his appearance, to which the Prime Minister responded positively and attributed the contrast between media portrayals and reality to biased reporting. Netanyahu criticized certain media outlets for spreading a "fictional reality" while asserting that the public can see the truth for themselves.

The interview took a more personal tone as Shushan remarked that Netanyahu seemed very kind, contrary to his public image. Netanyahu shared that many people who meet him and his wife, Sara, express surprise at the difference between their real personalities and the media image. Shushan described Netanyahu as approachable and friendly, a side the public is not accustomed to seeing. Netanyahu responded with humor, questioning how he is expected to behave.
