Maariv reported that MK Issawi Frej (Democratic Union) attacked Netanyahu and Gantz writing:
"Netanyahu is leading Benny Gantz to commit political suicide and giving the impression that no one will stop him. When Gantz becomes defense minister, the only one who will be safe is Bibi. Gantz will lose the confidence of his constituents, perhaps some of his partners and Netanyahu will be able to do so at will, including finding the reasons why not to keep the agreement.
