Gantz downplays importance of Iran phone hack, says ‘We’ll reach 40 seats’
In a slew of interviews with Hebrew media, Blue and White party chief Benny Gantz downplays the significance of Iran’s hacking of his cellphone.
“There’s no confidential information in there,” he tells Channel 12 news. “I’m not susceptible to influence by what’s in there.”
Asked if he is worried about his party’s drop in the polls, Gantz tells Ynet: “The pendulum will continue until the election, and we’ll reach 40 seats [ in the Knesset].”
