A 61-year-old former employee, Yehiel Ohev-Ami, has sued Sara Netanyahu, wife of the Israeli Prime Minister, for NIS 300,000 (approximately $98,000), alleging verbal and physical abuse during his five months of employment as a cook and cleaner at the Prime Minister’s Residence. Ohev-Ami claims Netanyahu subjected him to "a torrent of screams and swearing," shoved him against a wall on three occasions, and made derogatory remarks, including telling him, "I hope you get cancer," and "If only you would die." He also alleges she "diagnosed" him with autism and demanded three paychecks as compensation, stating, "I am the prime minister’s wife. I am the number one psychologist in Israel, and I have no competitors." The Prime Minister’s Office denies the claims, stating they "have no basis, [and] do not reflect reality," and that Ohev-Ami was fired for professional reasons after failing to cooperate with other workers. This lawsuit follows several previous accusations of abuse against Sara Netanyahu by former employees.
