Opposition Leader Yair Lapid meets with two heads of right-wing opposition parties in an attempt to coordinate a bloc that will work together to bring down the government.
Lapid, Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman and New Hope head Gideon Sa’ar “agreed on a plan of action to replace the government for the sake of the future of the State of Israel,” a statement on behalf of the trio says.
They once again call on National Unity party chief Benny Gantz to quit the coalition and join them, as Gantz has threatened to do by June 8 if the premier doesn’t fulfill a series of demands.
