Additional details in the case of the fake profile "Dana Ron": Blade 433 opened an investigation a few days ago following the threats against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which were posted by the profile on Facebook. Today (Tuesday) the police announced: "The person behind the publication is a foreign resident, who has not lived in Israel for a long time."
Following the police statement, Prime Minister Netanyahu said: "I thank the Israeli police for locating the user who incited against me on Facebook and hope that they will prosecute her. Incitement to murder - out of bounds. "I do not even expect an apology from the media who claimed that this was a 'bot' that I used, but I do expect left-wing leaders Lapid and others to condemn this terrible incitement."
Blade 433 entered the picture with the approval of the Deputy State Attorney, in order to find out who is behind the profile whose name was written in response to the post: "Bibi should only be taken down by force, dictators move only with a bullet in the head."
The police clarified today that the investigation procedure continued in coordination with the State Attorney's Office.
