After Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu releases a video saying it is “totally clear” he did nothing wrong in the so-called submarines affair, head of the opposition Zionist Union faction Avi Gabbay says Netanyahu is proud of the case.

“The prime minister has become proud of the submarine affair. Two possibilities: This is the biggest corruption scandal ever here or the biggest administrative farce ever here,” Gabbay tweets. “There are no other possibilities.”

Netanyahu is not a suspect in the case, which involves alleged corruption in the purchase of naval vessels and submarines from a German shipbuilder, though a number of his close associates and former aides have been implicated.
