Blue and White chairman Benny Gantz said Monday morning that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wastes every opportunity for true unity and must end his term and return the mandate to the public. Gantz said he hopes the public shows Netanyahu the door, in remarks to 103FM radio.
Gantz's statement, made Monday morning on 103FM, is the latest by a senior opposition figure calling for Netanyahu to step down. The Blue and White chairman specifically criticized Netanyahu for failing to achieve genuine national unity, a recurring theme in the current political climate. In recent weeks, MK Tropper and former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett have made similar calls, as The Zioneer has reported. The remarks come at a time of political flux, with various factions positioning themselves ahead of potential elections.
