An adviser of Prime Minister Netanyahu attacked Defense Minister Naftali Bennett's conduct. He said that, "In an emergency, a government minister is expected to behave responsibly and hold discussions in the professional forums in the government and not [leak information to] the media.
"The Prime Minister, who is waging the battle against the coronavirus responsibly alongside Israeli and international health experts, allows all government ministers to express their views in government forums. It is appropriate for the defense minister to take care of the tasks the Prime Minister has deferred to him instead of constantly being involved in media attacks against the prime minister and the government he is a member of."
