Yair Netanyahu, son of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, sharply criticized National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir on Wednesday, October 21, accusing him of actions that could benefit left-wing political forces. Netanyahu Jr. posted screenshots from the news page "Push" on Instagram, claiming it presented Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the "Yashar!" party, in a positive light. A user comment accompanying the posts accused Ben-Gvir of siding against the right-wing camp. Yair Netanyahu echoed this sentiment, stating, "It is truly unbelievable that Ben-Gvir's page (Push) is promoting a left-wing victory with absurd, brazen, and false propaganda! Right-wing voters need to know about this. Why is Ben-Gvir acting in the interests of a left-wing victory?!"
This criticism comes after Gadi Eisenkot stated in an interview with 103FM that he would not join a government led by Benjamin Netanyahu, even under a rotation agreement. Eisenkot explicitly promised to resign if such a situation arose, emphasizing his refusal to cooperate with Netanyahu under any circumstances. The context for these statements is the ongoing preparations for elections and discussions about potential future government formations.
Netanyahu Jr.'s accusation against Ben-Gvir suggests that the "Push" page, associated with Ben-Gvir, is promoting Eisenkot and, in his assessment, aiding the left. However, the article notes that these statements reflect the views of Yair Netanyahu and the commentator, not an established fact about the "Push" page's political objectives. Earlier reports indicated that the Likud party acknowledged a potential loss of up to five mandates for the right-wing bloc.
