In recent days, there have been advanced talks for a joint run by former chiefs of staff Benny Gantz and Moshe (Bogie) Yaalon with Gantz heading the list for the 21st Knesset.

According to the report, a list of chiefs of staff will provide a response to a security agenda, where it will be difficult to attach a left-wing image when Yaalon becomes part of it.

Both candidates preferred not to comment.
