On video: Netanyahu in the Knesset Plenum: "We will maintain the status quo" (Knesset Channel)
Prime Minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu today (Monday) sent the employees of his office for a polygraph test.
This, in the background of a series of leaks to the media and tense incidents between MKs in the Likud and the staff of the bureau.
At the beginning of the month, MK Tali Gottlieb of the Likud publicly attacked Netanyahu's advisors, Tzachi Braverman and Ikki Cohen, claiming that they leaked details of a conversation with her to journalist Ben Caspit.
Even then it was reported that Braverman and Cohen took a polygraph test to clear their names.
Last week, MK Galit Distel Atabrian also came out publicly against Braverman, who is slated to be appointed chief of staff in the Prime Minister's office, and accused him of another leak of mercury.
He sent the people of his office for a polygraph test.

"With all due respect to Tzachi Braverman, Prime Minister Netanyahu's assistant, the one who decided to open a front against the women of Likud and continuously leak to Caspit against us - I didn't break any vase. Caspit must check his sources better," Distal Atabrian said on Twitter. On Braverman's behalf They
denied the allegations and threatened to respond with a libel suit.
A day later, Caspit published in a column an overview of the many internal conflicts within Netanyahu's bureau. According to Likud sources, the publication increased tensions and suspicion among the bureau's personnel, and the accumulation of cases led to some of them being sent for a polygraph test.
