Khaberni - Israel is witnessing an escalating internal political crisis, following the resignation of the Prime Minister's Chief of Staff, Ziv Agmon, in a surprising development that shook the ruling circle close to Benjamin Netanyahu.
According to reports circulated, the resignation came against the backdrop of statements attributed to Agmon that addressed behaviors related to Prime Minister's wife, Sarah Netanyahu, criticisms related to her son Yair Netanyahu, and statements against Moroccan Jews, which ignited a severe internal crisis.
The reports indicate that Sarah Netanyahu exerted direct pressure to end Agmon's duties, considering that his statements harm the reputation of the Prime Minister and put him in an awkward political position.
In a statement, Agmon announced his decision to resign and retire from public life, affirming that he found himself in the heart of a political and media controversy he did not seek, amid escalating rhetoric he described as "divisive".
The crisis opens the door to questions about the influence of the family circle on political decision-making within the Prime Minister's office, especially given the sensitivity of the stage and the increasing internal and external tensions.
Agmon also described Knesset member Eliyahu Revivo as "the backward Moroccan," and Knesset member Nissim Vatori as "the baboon, a large monkey." The report continued that Agmon mocked Likud deputies of Moroccan and Mizrahi origin, saying: "Who even knows these people? What a bunch of baboons (monkeys). Unfortunately, it is not possible to book the entire list and cancel the primaries." It was reported about Agmon, Khaberni, saying that "Bibi is finished" after the October 7 attack, and that "the state is finished".
He also attacked Sarah Netanyahu by describing the deputies who flatter her as stupid.
