Israeli media reported on Thursday that the regime's military censor ordered the removal of a Calcalist article detailing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's son's real estate purchase in the United Kingdom, raising sharp criticism over the use of national security tools for shielding personal or political interests.

The original piece, written by journalist Amitai Gazit, revealed that Avner Netanyahu, the prime minister's younger son, purchased a $550,000 to $575,000 apartment in Oxford in 2022, under the name Avi Avner Segal, a legal alias reflecting his grandmother's maiden name. The purchase was made without a mortgage, and Avner confirmed that it was fully funded by his parents, adding that "they reported everything they needed to report to the Israeli and British tax authorities."
