Defense Minister Yisrael Katz issued a sharp statement Thursday, directly blaming opposition leaders for any future attacks against Israel. Katz asserted that if any attacks or terror incidents occur, they will be attributed to Yair Lapid, Naftali Bennett, Yair Golan, and their colleagues in the opposition.

The minister accused the opposition of "ceaselessly attacking" the Prime Minister and himself, and of casting doubt on their judgment. Katz stated that he and the Prime Minister possess intelligence indicating that Israel's enemies intend to attack the country, potentially during the election period. He argued that the opposition's criticism undermines efforts to warn against these threats based on the available intelligence.
