Likud says report it demanded acting PM receive state residence is ‘fake news’
Likud denies it has demanded that the acting prime minister — basically a deputy with added powers — receive an official state residence, supposedly to accommodate Benjamin Netanyahu entering the position in 18 months’ time.
The party says the claim is “fake news.”
Meanwhile, Benny Gantz’s former political partner Yair Lapid tweets: “So this is what an emergency government looks like: no word on daycares [in Hebrew “day residences”], endless talk about the residence of the prime minister and his deputy.”
