Member of Knesset Itzik Shmuli (Labor-Gesher) expressed hope on Monday that MK Benny Gantz (Blue and White) will be able to form a government by his Wednesday deadline.
Interviewed by public radio, Shmuli said, "In the end, Netanyahu is making unreasonable demands on Blue and White. Why should I swallow this whole bloc of the right? The mandate is currently with Gantz and I hope he can break through in the two days he has left."
