Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu became visibly angered during a recent interview with I24 News anchor Michal Ravinovitch. Netanyahu, who has been conducting numerous interviews to promote the Likud party's political campaign, was discussing his claim that the left is trying to politically eliminate him. As Ravinovitch nodded and repeatedly said "yes" during his explanation, Netanyahu abruptly stopped and demanded to know why she kept agreeing with him when he was explaining something important. Ravinovitch, appearing shocked, responded by asking him to please explain further. Former journalist Haim Levinson commented on the incident, suggesting Netanyahu's reaction stemmed from being accustomed to interviews where participants remain silent, contrasting it with Ravinovitch's affirmative responses. Levinson described the interview as "stormy" for the Prime Minister.
