The Joint List will decide whether to recommend Blue and White leader Benny Gantz to serve as prime minister before it meets with President Reuven Rivlin this evening, Ahmad Darawshe, a spokesman for MK Ahmad Tibi says.

Darawshe makes the statement after the head of the four Arab-majority factions that make up the Joint List held a meeting at the Knesset.
