Former minister Dan Meridor, who spent most of his Knesset career in the Likud Party, announced on Thursday his support for the Blue-and-White list headed by Benny Gantz.

Meridor told Israel Defense Forces Radio,"The only way to stop [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu's damage is to vote Blue and White." He declared, "I will vote Blue and White, Netanyahu is going against the party's way. It's not Likud, it's the opposite."
