Israeli authorities have completed an investigation into an alleged plot to assassinate Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, officials confirmed today.
According to a joint statement from the Israel Police and Shin Bet, cited by i24NEWS, the inquiry was led by the National Unit for the Investigation of Serious and International Crimes (Yachbal) and focused on a woman in her seventies from Tel Aviv, known for her involvement in anti-government protests. She is suspected of expressing intent to assassinate the Prime Minister and actively attempting to carry out the plan.
Investigators believe the suspect approached other protest activists in an effort to acquire weapons and gather information about Netanyahu’s security arrangements. The investigation has concluded, and the case has now been handed over to the Attorney General’s Office for review and possible legal action.
A court has lifted the gag order on details of the investigation following a request by the police, though the suspect’s name and address remain under a publication ban at the request of her legal counsel.
Opposition Leader Yair Lapid condemned the reported assassination attempt, stating: “I strongly condemn the attempt to harm Prime Minister Netanyahu. Anyone who has attempted or will attempt to do so must face the full force of the law.”
Officials reaffirmed that any threats against elected officials will be dealt with severely and prosecuted to the fullest extent.
