After the various reports about the consolidation of the deal with the terrorist organization Hamas , today (Saturday) a number of opposition members attacked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. This, after a political official said: "Contrary to publications, Israel will under no circumstances agree to the end of the war as part of an agreement to release our hostages. As the political echelon decided, the IDF will enter Rafah and destroy the remaining Hamas battalions there – whether there is a temporary truce for the release of our hostages, or if not".

Netanyahu's partner in the government, Minister Benny Gantz, also attacked the publication of the anonymous briefing: "An official response to the outline has not yet been received. When accepted – the war management cabinet will meet and discuss it. Until then, I suggest to the "political authorities" and all the decision makers to wait for official updates, to behave calmly and not to get into hysteria for political reasons.
MK Karin Elharer from the "Yesh Atid" party: "Petty politics defeats the 'political factor' every time. He does everything to prevent a deal (including giving a briefing on Shabbat). The main thing is not to annoy Ben Gabir and Smotritz and to please the base. There is no trace of leadership in him that obliges him to try and correct even a little and do everything to return the abducted. moral disgrace. He must be replaced.'

MK Vladimir Bliak from the Yesh Atid party wrote, "We will meet in Begin": "There is no way to embellish this – Netanyahu is trying to thwart the deal to return the abductees, because the deal may break up his coalition. The man who abandoned the citizens of the State of Israel on Black Sabbath has been abandoning them again and again for seven and a half months. At the head of the State of Israel is a terrible, corrupt, unscrupulous politician with red lines. Only tremendous public pressure will save the abductees and the future of the country. Tonight they left the house. the order of the hour. Now it's up to us. We'll meet in Begin."

Member of Knesset Mirav Ben Ari wrote before the reaction of the senior politician: "I am reading here the briefings that come out, on Saturday, from the Prime Minister's office, just before Hamas returns their answer, and I cannot help but wonder what kind of terrible person is at the head of this country. There is not, was not, and will not be such a person. Bring them home, after that, continue the war. Rafih is not going anywhere, the abductees are in danger, every day."

Bring them home, after that continue the war.

MK Efrat Raiten : "Issuing an announcement about entering Rafah in any case, with or without a deal, at such a critical time, when the parties all agree and it is possible to get the hostages out alive, means thwarting the deal and renouncing one of the defined goals of the war – the return of the abductees. The blame will always be yours."
