Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara have decamped to the luxury mansion with a deep nuclear bunker, amid growing public anger towards the country’s leaders.
The gated mansion in a Jerusalem mansion, owned by US billionaire Simon Falic, comes with high-level security.
It will offer the PM an escape from mounting rage among Israeli citizens who are angry about how Hamas fighters were able to breach Israel’s borders, brutally murder 1,400 men, women and children and grab 220 hostages in the October 7 attacks.

The PM’s move into the mansion caused outrage in Israel last night.

British-German property tycoon Zak Gertler, is also known to possess a similar bunker, underlining the growing concerns as the Iran threat becomes more than just a cold war.
Last month, shortly before Hamas declared war, the Netanyahus moved into the Waldorf Astoria hotel in Jerusalem. At the time, the Prime Minister’s Office said there were renovations underway at the Jerusalem home to upgrade its security capability.
Prior to the Hamas atrocities, hundreds of thousands of Israelis had been protesting against the premier and his right-wing coalition over plans to reform the judicial system, allegations of cronyism and allowing Jewish settlers to expand into more areas that were supposed to be occupied by Palestinians..…CONTINUE.FULL.READING>>>
