Netanyahu: Those who softened rules at Knesset should not wonder why cases rose
The cabinet is meeting to discuss the ongoing lockdown and aid to businesses hurt by the closure.
During the meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes a jibe directed at the head of the Knesset’s Coronavirus Committee, MK Yifat Shasha-Biton, saying: “All those who disregarded the instructions, or worse watered them down at the Knesset, should not ask how infections have risen.”
