Yair, the son of Prime Minister Netanyahu, was allegedly taken from Miami to Israel after claims emerged that an assassination plot had been prepared against him. Claims that Yair was targeted by Iran have not been independently verified.
Israeli intelligence allegedly learned of the plan targeting Yair in December 2025. Iranian agents were also alleged to have been in the area to monitor the residence where Yair was staying in Miami and his daily movements.

Israel allegedly warned U.S. authorities about the development and instructed Yair to leave Miami immediately. Yair then allegedly returned to Israel without collecting his belongings.
Prime Minister Netanyahu said in remarks to Israel-based Channel 14 on August 24 that one of his sons had been targeted by Iran.
