In a letter to prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Karnit Flug said she would end her tenure with a feeling of “great satisfaction”.

“I was privileged to head an organisation of the highest quality, which works with professionalism, dedication and loyalty, and that on a daily basis lives up to the vision it set for itself,” she said.
