Meretz chief calls for Litzman to be axed for allegedly violating virus restrictions

MK Nitzan Horowitz, head of the left-wing Meretz party, calls for Health Minister Yaakov Litzman to be fired after a report said he took part in group prayers that violated Health Ministry directives in the days before he tested positive for the coronavirus.

“A health minister who violates the directives that he himself signed off on… cannot continue to serve in his role for even another day,” Horowitz tweets.
