Shlomi Heisler, the director of the Finance Ministry, has announced his resignation, citing health reasons as the primary factor behind his decision. However, sources close to Heisler suggest that his departure may be more closely linked to ongoing friction with Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.
According to these associates, Heisler expressed feelings of being "fed up" with the current political climate and the challenges posed by Smotrich’s far-right agenda. The tensions reportedly stem from differing views on fiscal policy and management strategies within the ministry, leading to a rift that has affected Heisler’s ability to perform his duties effectively.
This unexpected resignation raises questions about the stability of the Finance Ministry and the impact of internal conflicts on government operations. As Heisler steps down, the ministry will need to navigate the transition and address the underlying issues that contributed to his decision to leave.
