In the past year, after the passing of the late Rabbi Yosef, and following the rift in the Sephardic community, much friction arose between Mimran and the radio management.
It is currently unclear where he is headed, but he will likely join the competing station 'Kol Hai'.
A statement from Kool Bermah said: "We thank Avi Mimran, the program director and presenter of the edition, for his years of activity and important contribution to the station and its listeners, and wish him success in his future endeavors.".
Avi Mimran said: "I thank the radio management for years of joint and successful work, I feel grateful to the station's owners and managers, and I thank the station's listeners for their support over the past six years.".
