MK Yair Lapid responded to the attack on him by Democratic Israel's Chairman Ehud Barak.

"Barak will not pass the threshold and throw away 100,000 votes that can make the difference between victory and defeat. This is not the time for hobby parties. The rotation brought 35 seats due to Lapid," Lapid wrote.

Barak said in an interview earlier that "Yair Lapid is the main factor that Blue and White did not win, he is wrapping with glitter."
