Gantz chides Liberman for call to flout virus rules

Defense Minister Benny Gantz is also condemning Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman over his call to Israelis to flout the government’s virus rules.

He calls the comment “irresponsible” and urges him not to use the pandemic to shore up political capital.

“The coronavirus is not here to move [Knesset] seats [from one party to another] or a means for political goading,” says Gantz.
