Benny Gantz, a member of the regime’s war cabinet on Sunday rejected Netanyahu's claim that they are allies.
“We are not your allies; this is neither an alliance nor a government”, Gantz responded to Netanyahu’s claim quoted by the Zionist media and cited by the Palestine Alyoum news website.
According to reports, differences have intensified in the recent meeting of the war cabinet where Yoav Gallant, the current minister of military affairs also attacked Netanyahu over his policies related to the Gaza war and prisoner exchange.
“The prime minister has violated the security system that resulted in the occurrence of mistakes”, Gallant underlined.
Meanwhile. Netanyahu tried to water down the issue and claimed that his administration remained united “to achieve a massive victory”, without mentioning the growing division.
This is while; Israeli media reported earlier that Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot had even threatened Netanyahu to dissolve the war council.
Soon after October 7, Netanyahu formed an emergency war cabinet by extending the Israeli governing coalition to a number of former senior military officers, drawn from the ranks of the opposition.
One of them was Benny Gantz, a former minister of military affairs, who swiftly demanded Netanyahu retract his controversial post while showing full support to the army and the Shin Bet, Israel’s domestic spy agency.
