Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu told the Jewish Agency Board of Governors, Monday evening at the Begin Center in Jerusalem, "Iran is a big danger that, in order to deal with it, we must first come together. The reason why this has not been done so far is that there are forces in [Blue and White Chairman Benny] Gantz's party who do not want it and I specifically mean Yair Lapid."
Earlier in the day, Lapid said Netanyahu's approach to the mandate for forming a government was to push for more elections because of the corruption charges he faces.
