Israeli Occupation social media was abuzz with controversy over recent photos allegedly depicting Benjamin Netanyahu's son, Yair, on a gay dating app. The images, which were circulated, showed a man posing in a selfie mirror with his face hidden behind an iPad. The profile described the man as handsome, 32 years old, and blond.

Attorney Gonen Ben Yitzhak, known for his criticism of Benjamin Netanyahu's government, shared the photos, with the caption, "Our good guys are fighting in Gaza," triggering a flurry of reactions with many asking who the images belong to.

The revelation of Yair Netanyahu's alleged presence on the gay app brought longstanding rumors to the surface, sparking debate.

The images stirred particular controversy within religious circles and among coalition partners of Netanyahu's father, who often condemn homosexuality and advocate for its denouncement.

Earlier in February, Netanyahu's son faced backlash from Israeli Occupation social media users after a video of him in Miami went viral, drawing parallels between Israeli Occupation citizens currently waging war on Palestinians in Gaza and the Prime Minister's son enjoying the safety of a skyscraper in the United States although he remains eligible for reserve duty until he turns 40.

Yair Netanyahu, already a controversial figure in Israeli Occupation politics, found himself under increased scrutiny. Critics have often targeted both him and his mother, Sarah, labeling them "the parasites" due to allegations of extravagant spending and misconduct at the expense of taxpayers.

The situation is unprecedented in Israeli Occupation politics, with no previous prime minister's son drawing such attention. Yair's brother Avner, in contrast, is viewed by many in Israeli Occupation as a serious and honest individual.
