Meretz MK Yair Golan receives backlash for comments referring to former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a “malignant disease.”
In a radio interview, Golan says that “we must redeem Israel from the malignant disease called Benjamin Netanyahu.”
In response, Likud slams Golan for “wild incitement” and calls on Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Foreign Minister Yair Lapid to condemn Golan’s statement.
