Eylon Levy, the charismatic face of Israeli Hasbara in English-speaking media, has reportedly been sacked from his position in the Israeli government.
Levy, a graduate of University College School Hampstead and Brasenose College, Oxford shot to fame early in Israel’s war against Hamas, doing dozens of media interviews a day before being hired by the Prime Minister’s office as a spokesman.
He joined the ranks of Mark Regev, Jonathan Conricus and Daniel Hagari and made dozens of appearances on British media outlets including the BBC, Sky, and Channel 4.
Levy, who was previously a TV journalist before working for Israeli president Isaac Herzog joined the Israeli government spokesman’s unit early in the war with Hamas and was widely praised by Israelis for his forthright if outspoken style.
