Tension between Shas' Rabbi Ovadia Yosef and his son

Sources close to Shas spiritual leader, Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, claimed there had been attempts by people close to him recently to push his son, David Yosef, away from him. His son is close to Arieh Deri.

A family member told Ynet that people are turning the rabbi against his son, adding they are behaving "as if there were elections tomorrow." (Kobi Nahshoni)
