Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the 'Qatar-gate' affair in an affidavit submitted to the Supreme Court, stating: 'My feeling, which I expressed publicly, was that these were biased investigations intended to prevent my intention to dismiss him - an intention that developed over time and was published already in November 2024.' According to Netanyahu, 'I said that the intention to fire Bar led to the investigation and its associated publications, not that the investigation led to the dismissal.'
