Buskila was born in Ashkelon to David and Miriam. He worked as a barber,[2] and established several companies responsible for the management of properties, hotels, and commercial activities.[3][clarification needed]

Buskila, the former leader of the Likud in Ashkelon, served as a member of its city council from May 2009, when he replaced resigning member Haim Cohen, and 2022.[4][5] Buskila also served as a deputy Mayor,[6] and briefly ran for Mayor of Ashkelon in 2018,[7] but withdrew from the race and endorsed incumbent Itamar Shimoni.[8] In 2014, Buskila was elected to the Likud's secretariat.[9]
