Israeli police have detained a top aide to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on suspicion of leaking classified information to foreign media outlets. The aide, Eliezer Feldstein, is among several individuals being questioned over the alleged leak of sensitive intelligence data.
The investigation revolves around claims that the Prime Minister's Office promoted a narrative to foreign media suggesting that Hamas planned to smuggle hostages out of Gaza through Egypt. This purported scheme was believed to be an attempt to pressure Netanyahu into agreeing to a ceasefire and hostage release deal.
