(MENAFN) Commuters in Tel Aviv awoke to the unusual sight of a towering golden statue of the Israeli leader on Tuesday morning.
In detail, the 15ft (4.5m) statue of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared near the city hall.
The artist, Itay Zalait, said the statue - nicknamed "King Bibi" - was partly inspired by the idol-like status of Mr Netanyahu among some Israelis.
Officials said the statue was erected without permission and must be removed.
