Sources in Yad Vashem told The Jerusalem Post last week that Netanyahu wasn’t happy with Dayan’s approach to boycott extreme-right-wing politicians, and felt that he is “too independent.”
Yad Vashem has become a focal point for scrutiny from some Israeli officials, mainly Education Minister Yoav Kisch.
"Maintaining the independence of such institutions around the world is key as we face efforts to distort/deny the facts of the Holocaust."
Education Minister Yoav Kisch initiated a directive in a poorly orchestrated attempt to unseat Dayan and put a Likud MK in his place.
Education Minister Yoav Kisch has accused the Yad Vashem Chairman of allowing unauthorized parties to vote at board meetings.
The Google Doodle, made by Israeli artist Noa Snir, depicts Dr. Mohammed Helmy, the first Arab to be recognized by Yad Vashem as Righteous Among the Nations.
Tel Aviv art museum has come under fire due to Christie's auction house's relationship with an org that got wealthy dispossessing Jews during the Holocaust.
the new exhibit will use new state-of-the-art technology, sound and light technology as part of an "immersive experience," Yad Vashem said.
