Gantz calls Litzman and Deri to update them on unity tallks, laments PM’s disinterest in reaching deal

Blue and White chairman Benny Gantz has telephoned Shas chairman Ayreh Deri and United Torah Judaism chairman Yaakov Litzman to update them on the status of his unity government talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to Ynet.

Gantz told both the ultra-Orthodox lawmakers that Netanyahu does not appear interested in reaching a deal and that it would be a shame if the country is dragged toward another election, Ynet reports.
