The Israeli police thwarted another plan for the Prime Minister’s assassination. The man admitted the intention to fire at Netanyahu, threatening to custody by the end of the trial.
The Israeli police announced on Thursday that she had detained a man who threatened the assassinations of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Reuters informed about it, writes TASR.
According to the police on Monday night, just before the holiday Rosh Ha-Shaana, who begins the Jewish New Year, arrived at the police station in Kirjat Gat in the south of Israel, a 40-year-old man. The man admitted to the police the intention to buy a firearm and shoot three times at the Prime Minister. The cops detained this man. The indictment is expected to be raised on Thursday. The police want the man to remain in custody until the end of the court proceedings.
The Jerusalem Post recalled that the police were thwarting the plans of 74-year-old Tamar Geršoni in July, who allegedly planned to murder Netanyahu with an explosive facility.
Prime Minister loses public support
Geršoni is active in the anti -government protest movement. The leaders of these protests have warned the authorities that they have noticed suspicious behavior and action when other protesters were interested in how to get weapons and what are the security measures around the Prime Minister. The woman accused later of attempting a conspiracy in order to commit a terrorist act was detained by the Israeli secret service Shin Bet.
Public opinion polls show that Netanyahu is losing public support during the ongoing war in the Palestinian Gaza Palestone. For nearly two years of war against the militants of the Palestinian radical movement Hamas, he raises publicly concerns about the global isolation of Israel.
In the Gaza Strip, 48 hostages have been detained since October 2023 – 20 of them are probably still alive. Relatives and loved ones are urging these hostages to the Israeli government to conclude an agreement to allow them to return home.
