Michal Kasten-Kedar, the widow of Lt. Col. Dolev Kedar, attacked Netanyahu and did not accept his apology for a Likud advertisement featuring a military cemetery: "Of course he's involved in this."

Netanyahu renounced the Likud's controversial campaign ad, in which the graves of IDF soldiers were displayed to illustrate the price of Benny Gantz's weak security policy. The ad was removed earlier on Tuesday after it caused an uproar.

"I saw this video and I was shocked. I immediately called and asked that it be removed. I also asked to look into who did it, how it happened, and to distance those who did it from the campaign," Netanyahu said.
