Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir responded to a reporter from Channel 12 News, Muhammad Magadla, following a report that Ben-Gvir is participating in a lecture series and calling on the public to vote to improve the conditions of prisoners in jails. "Muhammad, God willing, with God's help. I will not only handle national security, but also the Ministry of Defense," Ben-Gvir stated. The minister's remarks suggest he may seek to expand his responsibilities beyond his current portfolio.
Ben-Gvir's statement implies a potential interest in overseeing the Ministry of Defense, a significant governmental body responsible for the country's military and security apparatus. This potential expansion of his role, if realized, would mark a substantial shift in the Israeli government's structure and the distribution of power.
