Israel Coordinated Security at Jeffrey Epstein's Apartment for Ehud Barak

Newly released emails from the United States===United States Department of Justice reveal that the Israeli government, through its mission to the United Nations, installed and managed security equipment at a Manhattan apartment building controlled by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The arrangements, which began in early 2016 and continued for at least two years, were primarily for the protection of former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, who frequently used the apartment. Rafi Shlomo, head of Barak's security, coordinated with Epstein's staff, and Epstein himself approved the physical alterations. The correspondence, including exchanges involving Barak's wife Nili Priell and Epstein's assistant Litigation involving Jeffrey Epstein, details the installation of alarms and surveillance. The revelations have led to political fallout in Israel, with current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu using the documents to criticize Barak.
