Channel 14 Report on Yoseph Haddad Sparks Controversy Over Past NGO Work

Channel 14 Report on Yoseph Haddad Sparks Controversy Over Past NGO Work

Yoseph Haddad, an Israeli advocacy activist and Knesset candidate, has denounced a Channel 14 report that criticized his past work with the Save a Child's Heart NGO. Haddad stated the report, which claimed his promotion of the organization before October 7th contradicted his party's stance, was a politically motivated attack. He presented evidence including praise from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and a positive article from Channel 14 itself about the NGO's work. Haddad asserted he was promoting Israel, not the organization, and accused the channel of distortion.
