Foreign Minister Yair Lapid has expressed his support for fellow coalition member, Education Minister Yifat Shasha-Biton, in the wake of criticism of her decision to fire the Ministry's director-general, due to a dispute regarding inoculations against COVID in schools.
"I have full confidence in the Education Minister - in her professionalism and her integrity," Lapid said. "All the slander will achieve nothing. We will continue to change the country together."
