Amir Dur, the former head of the security detail for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has revealed new details of an incident he says involved an attack by the prime minister's son, Yair Netanyahu, on his own father. In an interview with the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, Dur stated that the incident ended with Yair being forcibly sent to the United States. Dur confirmed that the incident was a 'real attack' that required the intervention of the security detail to break up the fight and prevent the situation from escalating around the prime minister. He explained that the decision to send Yair Netanyahu to Miami was taken immediately after the incident, and he believes that what happened cannot be separated from the 'exceptional and unethical' family behavior patterns that involve more than one member of the Netanyahu family. This comes at a time when political and media criticism against the family of the Israeli prime minister is intensifying against the backdrop of internal crises and ongoing regional tensions.
