Gil Segal, the former CEO of Yesh Atid who recently joined Yisrael Beytenu, was photographed with MK Yaron Levy — who also recently left Yesh Atid — according to a political correspondent. The move is said to be creating friction between party leaders Avigdor Lieberman and Yair Lapid.
Former Yesh Atid CEO Gil Segal, who recently joined Yisrael Beytenu, was photographed Tuesday with MK Yaron Levy — himself a recent Yesh Atid defector, according to N12 political correspondent Daphna Liel. The photo and accompanying report indicate that Segal's move is generating significant tension between Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Lieberman and Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid. The report did not specify whether Segal has taken on a formal role in Lieberman's party. Yisrael Beytenu has been working to attract former Yesh Atid officials and voters ahead of the next election cycle, amid broader realignment in the center-right bloc. No further details were immediately available.
