PM’s wife says she didn’t tell Rafi Peretz’s wife her husband shouldn’t step aside for Shaked

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s wife Sara is denying a report that she recently told Rafi Peretz’s wife that her husband shouldn’t step aside for Ayelet Shaked as leader in a theoretical alliance of right-wing parties.

“Sara Netanyahu and Rafi Peretz’s wife met briefly and accidentally at a large wedding,” the Ynet news site quotes a letter put out on Sara Netanyahu’s behalf as saying.

“The two briefly embraced while surrounded by a large crowd and agreed to meet later. The claim about the details of the conversation that supposedly took place is a falsehood and fabrication.”
