Shaked and Bennett deflects PM’s criticism, say their new party returning votes to right
Ayelet Shaked and Naftali Bennett’s New Right party deflects criticism by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said their faction could “shatter the right into pieces.”
“We will not be dragged into the prime minister’s attacks on us. We are returning the mandates that left the Likud to go to the left-wing bloc of Gantz, Lapid and Orly Levy. We propose the prime minister join us in this mission,” the party says in a statement.
