Family tensions have intensified since it was announced to El Al shareholders that David "Dedi" Borovich will not be buying out twin brother Izzy's stake in El Al's parent company, Knafaim.
Despite a statement in May that Dedi would be exercising an option to buy the shares from his brother, who has been talking about leaving his position as El Al chairman, it seems that Dedi may not have raised the necessary funds.
As if that was not enough, recent reports indicate that Izzy is seeking to foreclose the $500,000 bank guarantee that Dedi gave him as collateral for the agreement.
So could this feud cause a split between El and Al?
