Benjamin Netanyahu headshot from DOJ case files

Benjamin Netanyahu

Israeli PM; 650+ file mentions mostly in news clippings; publicly criticized Barak's Epstein ties

Court Filing

Also known as: Netanyahu, Bibi

Prime Minister of Israel whose name appears in over 650 documents in the DOJ Epstein files, almost entirely in the context of forwarded news articles about Israeli politics rather than direct correspondence. A 2020 FBI memo referencing Epstein's alleged intelligence connections named Netanyahu among 'politically exposed persons.' Netanyahu has publicly stated 'Epstein did not work for Israel,' using the files to criticize predecessor Ehud Barak's documented Epstein ties. A widely circulated claim that Netanyahu was the recipient of a redacted email about a 'torture video' while in China was debunked by Snopes. Named on the DOJ's February 2026 list of 305 politically exposed persons.
