Israeli police have issued an arrest warrant for Israel Einhorn, a former adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in connection with two high-profile scandals involving the leaking of classified military intelligence and alleged foreign influence. Einhorn, who currently resides in Serbia, is accused of involvement in the so-called Bild affair, which centered on the leak of sensitive documents to a German newspaper in September 2024. The leaked document was reportedly intended to support Netanyahu's stance on the release of hostages held by Palestinian militants.

Einhorn is also suspected of participating in a separate scandal involving efforts by Qatar to improve its image in Israel. While Einhorn has not returned to Israel since the investigation began, he was previously questioned by Israeli authorities in Serbia. The developments come amid a series of arrests and legal actions against other Netanyahu aides, including the recent detention of his chief of staff, as the fallout from the scandals continues to unfold.
