Acting Health Minister Yaakov Litzman chided Benny Gantz for vowing to build two new hospitals during his maiden political speech on Tuesday evening.

"He gave a" dramatic announcement "about the health system, saying that he was committed to establishing two more hospitals in Israel, one in the south and one in the north. I would tell Gantz to fire his advisors," said Litzman.

"Go tell Gantz that we are already finishing a new hospital in south Be'er Sheva and are waiting for it to be licensed," added Litzman. "Also in Kirat Atta. What new things is he telling us?"
