Shaked said to reprimand Smotrich over ‘exaggerated’ attacks on Netanyahu

United Right chairwoman Ayelet Shaked has reprimanded her party member Bezalel Smotrich for his attacks on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling them exaggerated, the Kan public broadcaster reports.

“That kind of style doesn’t serve the campaign in any way,” Shaked reportedly says after Smotrich called Netanyahu “weak” and said he was displaying “zero leadership,” following a court decision to forbid a concert for the ultra-Orthodox community in Afula with separation between men and women.

The report does not cite a source.
