Large-scale protest and complaints to the police
This morning, dozens of activists, coordinated by advisers to MK Naomi Lazimi, filed complaints with the police against Sarah Netanyahu. The reason for this was the publication of an investigation by the Uvda programme, which indicates her possible involvement in putting pressure on witnesses and interfering with personnel decisions in law enforcement agencies. This was reported by the Time Ukraine Israel portal with reference to the Israeli publication N-12.
What did the investigation reveal?
According to a journalistic investigation, Sarah Netanyahu was allegedly involved in putting pressure on Hadas Klein, the former secretary to billionaire Arnon Milchan. The investigation also indicates that she may have influenced the appointment of Lieutenant General Danny Levy as police commissioner in exchange for weakening the protest movements.
Public reaction
Hadas Klein commented on the situation on social network X, addressing MP Benny Ganz:
“I expect a true leader to stand up for citizens and demand an official investigation.”
At the same time, activists created a WhatsApp group “File a complaint against Sarah”, which was joined by over 400 people. Participants received detailed instructions on how to file complaints, including the need to mention her alleged involvement in intimidating witnesses and unlawfully influencing personnel appointments.

Political pressure and calls for justice
Naama Lazimi’s advisers publicly stated:
“According to the investigation, Sarah Netanyahu may have demanded bribes, exerted pressure on witnesses and influenced justice. These are serious offences that cannot be ignored. We have filed complaints with the police and urge others to do the same.”
Activist Or Schneiberg stressed:
“Citizens have the right and the duty to report crimes. The Netanyahu family is not untouchable, and we will demand justice.”
Yael Agmon, who was among the initiators of the complaint, added:
“Sarah Netanyahu has shamelessly used her status for her own benefit. We can no longer remain silent. The police must act decisively.”
The authorities remain silent
Despite the public outcry, there has been no official response from the State Prosecutor’s Office, the Prime Minister’s Office or Sarah Netanyahu herself.
Human rights activists and civic activists emphasise that these events may be the beginning of a high-profile trial that will determine the future of the Israeli political system and the rule of law. The activists promise to continue the fight for justice.
