Media personality Avri Gilad has sharply criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's continued tenure, calling for renewal in the right-wing leadership ahead of elections. During a podcast interview, Gilad addressed the Prime Minister's age and the possibility of his re-election, stating, "The Prime Minister is 77 years old, he wants to be elected again. I very much hope he is not elected again. I am directing all my prayers so that we can be freed, refreshed, and renewed, so that we can move on. So that the Likud can move on." Gilad also criticized the criteria for promoting figures within the ruling party, saying, "Let the more sophisticated people in Likud be elected, who cannot live solely through their loyalty. Let new, young, fresh leaders emerge from within them, people at least 70 years old, where blind loyalty and glorious foolishness are not the only parameters."
