Prime Minister Netanyahu Visits Popular Meat Restaurant in Hadera Ahead of Elections

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the well-known "Shifudi Olga" meat restaurant in the Givat Olga neighborhood of Hadera on Sunday. This visit marks part of his renewed efforts to engage with the public ahead of the upcoming elections, focusing on locations where he enjoys strong support. Netanyahu was accompanied by dozens of Likud activists from the local branch, led by branch chairman and Hadera Deputy Mayor Shlomo Bozaglo, a prominent ally of Transportation Minister Miri Regev. His close advisor, Topaz Luk, also joined and was seen filming Netanyahu for campaign materials.

As in previous appearances, attendees wore identification wristbands after undergoing thorough security checks. During the visit, an awkward moment occurred when someone lifted their child for a photo with Netanyahu. The Prime Minister had to gently push the child away, recalling a recent controversy where he faced criticism for being photographed with children, which is prohibited during election campaigns.
