Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated at a conference in Acre that if re-elected, the portfolios for internal security and defense will remain with his Likud party in the next government. Currently, Itamar Ben-Gvir, chairman of the Otzma Yehudit party, serves as the Minister of National Security.
Netanyahu's remarks indicate a potential shift in the allocation of these significant security-related ministries, which are currently held by coalition partners. The explicit mention of keeping both the internal security and defense portfolios within Likud suggests a strategic move to consolidate power and control over key government functions should his party win the next election.
