Coalition chairman: Gantz’s actions ‘a provocation,’ endanger government

Coalition chairman and close Netanyahu ally Miki Zohar says Gantz’s decision to probe the submarine affair is “no less than a provocation against Likud and its leader.

“Even though Gantz knows well that Netanyahu had nothing to do with the submarine story, he is acting to besmirch him while endangering the coalition.”

Zohar asserts that this action is “yet more proof that Gantz is dragging Israel to elections during a global crisis.”
