A house cleaner working for Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz has been charged for allegedly offering to spy for an Iranian-linked hacker group, the Israeli Justice Ministry said Thursday.
Israeli authorities arrested Omri Goren Gorochovsky, 37, on Nov. 4, according to the newly released indictment. Gorochovsky, who began working in Gantz’s home outside Tel Aviv in 2018, is charged with espionage and faces 10-15 years in prison. Because he didn’t gain access to classified materials, Gorochovsky wasn’t charged with sharing state secrets.
