Israeli historian and author Yuval Noah Harari launched a sharp critique of Benjamin Netanyahu's government, holding it responsible for what he described as "the biggest disaster in Israeli history," Shehab Wire reported. Harari accused the leadership of steering the country toward mounting crises and deeper instability.
The remarks represent a significant public rebuke from one of Israel's most prominent intellectuals and public figures. Harari, whose works on history and human society have achieved international prominence and translation into dozens of languages, has previously offered occasional commentary on Israeli policy and governance. His latest assessment of the Netanyahu administration's direction came with particular severity and directness in tone.
