The Likud party issued a statement on Sunday addressing reports concerning allegations made by former Military Secretary, Major General (Res.) Avi Gil. The allegations reportedly involve the alleged alteration of protocols by Tzachi Braverman, the Head of the Prime Minister's Staff. The Likud stated that the matter is not new and was previously examined by law enforcement.
"Avi Gil's false blood libel regarding an alleged 'protocol forgery' by Chief of Staff Tzachi Braverman was thoroughly investigated by the police two years ago and concluded with the police recommending the case be closed due to lack of substance," the party's statement read. The Likud also commented on the political arena and opposition figures, suggesting, "The left's resuscitation attempts on a case that has already died only indicate the extent of [Gabi Ashkenazi's] panic, who understands he cannot form a government without the Arab parties, Yair Golan, Liberman, and Bennett."
The Likud's response comes amid public discussion spurred by the publication of these reports. The party aims to clarify that, from the perspective of investigative bodies, the affair is considered closed and resolved.
