The Likud party denies that party leader Benjamin Netanyahu is asking to mediate between Russia and Ukraine.

A report in the Israel Hayom daily, frequently aligned with the former prime minister, says that Netanyahu will ask Ukraine for permission to intervene.

A Likud spokesman calls the report “complete nonsense.”
