Netanyahu is squatting in Israel's prime minster's residence. It's not clear when he's moving out.
Benjamin Netanyahu's 12-year tenure as Israel's prime minister ended Sunday, and giving up the prime minister's seat proved challenging, literally and figuratively.
Israel's Channel 12 reported Monday that Netanyahu's office told new Prime Minister Naftali Bennett he will not vacate the official prime minister's residence for several more weeks, at least. Bennett, who plans to continue living at his home in Ra'anana for the foreseeable future, was reportedly indifferent to the news, but plenty of Israelis are irritated, especially after Netanyahu was photographed hosting foreign dignitaries at the official Balfour Street residence Monday night.
An anti-Netanyahu group, Crime Minister, warned the Prime Minister's Office on Tuesday it will petition the High Court of Justice for redress if Netanyahu, his wife, Sara, and son Yair don't vacate the residence by June 27. The group noted that it took the Netanyahus six weeks to move out of the official residence the last time he was voted out of office, in 1999.
"It is time, after 12 years of alienation and disconnect, for the Netanyahu family to understand that the prime minister's residence is a public resource and kindly vacate the premises within a short period of time, as is the practice in a proper democracy," Crime Minister said in a letter to Prime Minister's Office legal adviser Shlomit Barnea.
