Blue and White Chairman, MK Benny Gantz, claimed today (Tuesday) that the connection between Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid, who signed an agreement to run together in the elections, "harms the ability to replace this bad government and establish a broad and Zionist government.".

In a post he published on social media, Gantz wrote: "Instead of calling on the right-wing voters, Likudists and religious Zionists who are looking for another home today, and telling them that we will ensure that we establish a broad and Zionist government without extremists, that will deal with the conscription, the security and economic challenges - they chose to continue to entrench themselves in factional infighting and to worry about who will lead, instead of where we will lead.".

Gantz's party does not pass the threshold in all polls conducted by the media.
