Netanyahu has been responding to the allegations against Ghattas, saying that he should be banned from serving as an MK should the suspicions be true.

“Should the suspicions against MK Ghattas turn out to be correct, then we will be talking about a serious offense against the security of Israeli citizens,” he says. “Whoever harms the security of the state needs to be punished severely and should be banned from serving in the Knesset.”
