Netanyahu alleges Iranian plot against his son, cites security concerns

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed on Monday that Iran attempted to assassinate one of his two sons, without providing evidence or specifying which son. He made the statement during a phone interview with Israel's Channel 14 while discussing security arrangements for the upcoming October 27 election. Netanyahu also voiced support for providing around-the-clock protection for his political rival Gadi Eisenkot, warning that without it, Iran would succeed.
