Minister: Gantz trying to include woman in all-male coronavirus cabinet

Blue and White Minister Pnina Tamano-Shata says Defense Minister Benny Gantz is trying to bring a female representative into the high-level coronavirus cabinet, following criticism of the makeup of the all-male panel.

“I believe it will be resolved this week. Gantz has suggested to Likud they include a woman in the [coronavirus] cabinet,” she says in an interview with Army Radio.

The immigration and absorption minister also predicts that Israel will see 90,000 new immigrants by the end of 2021.
