PM wishes his ex-chief of staff accused of sexual misconduct a happy birthday
Benjamin Netanyahu wishes Natan Eshel, his former chief of staff who was forced to resign amid sexual misconduct claims, a happy 70th birthday.
In a video message, Netanyahu describes his friendship with Eshel as a “source of strength and a lot of happiness.”
In 2012, Eshel was forced to resign his position as the prime minister’s bureau chief amid allegations of sexual misconduct: specifically, that he had used a surreptitiously placed camera to film under the skirt of a female colleague. He was also accused of accessing her private emails.
