Likud bashes Gantz for ‘continuing his blind pursuit of Netanyahu’

Ex-premier Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party lashes out at Defense Minister Benny Gantz after the latter said he will seek to establish a state commission of inquiry into the so-called submarine affair.

“Gantz is continuing his blind pursuit of Netanyahu and Likud,” the party says in a statement.

Several associates of Netanyahu were suspected of wrongdoing in the case, but not the former prime minister himself.

Then-prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu (R) and Defense Minister Benny Gantz face away from each other during the swearing in of the 24th Knesset (Knesset spokesperson’s office)
