“Now we must work to remove the illegal infiltrators [from the country],” he says in a statement.
From the opposition, Labor party leader Avi Gabbay slams the U-turn as a reflective of the Israeli leader’s “lack of leadership, cowardice, incitement against groups, empty slogans, inability to make decisions, and zero ability to implement.”
