The left-wing Democratic Camp party issues a strongly worded statement against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, after the latter revealed an alleged Iranian nuclear weapons development site, linking it to an effort to have polling stations filmed in next week’s elections which was struck down earlier today by a Knesset committee.
“The ink hasn’t dried from the latest failed spin, and already Netanyahu presents another attempt to sell out the state’s security for personal gains,” the party says in a statement.
“It would be better for someone suspected of bribery, fraud and breach of trust not to deal with security,” it adds, referring to three corruption cases in which charges have been announced against the premier, pending a hearing.
Blue and White chief Benny Gantz says: “Netanyahu’s use of sensitive security information for propaganda indicates flawed judgment.”
