Netanyahu addresses crowd amid Haaretz controversy

Who's telling the truth when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces accusations of reframing a Haaretz lawsuit as an election-interference charge? The Likud party pushes back by characterizing the situation as foreign interference, pointing to a Palestinian official residing in the UAE as the source behind Haaretz's October 7 warning story. They allege this official aims to weaken the left-wing government to facilitate control over Gaza. In response, the Prime Minister claims journalist Shlomi Eldar was compensated by a nonprofit organization linked to Yair Golan's Democrats party, citing allegations that include a secret trip to the UAE involving Golan and Ronen Bar. The political party is requesting a criminal investigation into Eldar, Ruth Yuvall, Haaretz, Golan, and the Democrats.
