Yair Netanyahu, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's son, was publicly threatened on Wednesday during a protest held outside the Prime Minister's residency.
Protesters were recorded on video using a loudspeaker to tell Netanyahu, that “we know why you need bodyguards, one day we will find you when they are away, (that would be) a pity!”The prime minister filed an official complaint with police against Left-wing activist Haim Shadmi who allegedly called for the death of his son.
"The incitement among the radical left crossed all red-lines,” said the prime minister. “These are real threats to the life of my son, threats that can not be ignored."
Yair is well-known for using his social media presence to express radical views, among them that the Haaretz newspaper is owned by a German firm with a Nazi past and that Europe should be Christian.
