Haim Shani, the top aide to Israeli Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz, resigned after a series of disagreements with his boss as the government grapples with growing protests over housing costs.
Shani will leave as director general after less than two years at the Finance Ministry because of “differences of opinion in fundamental issues” with Steinitz, he said in an e-mailed letter.
