Defense Minister Israel Katz has broken the Likud party's silence following preliminary election results, urging the opposition to await the final outcome before declaring victory. Katz took to social media to temper the opposition's enthusiasm, advising them to "hold back and wait for the true results before they take off their masks and declare their willingness to form a minority government with the support of Arab parties."
Katz also criticized the opposition for what he described as their swift readiness to disregard pre-election commitments made by many opposition parties against forming a government dependent on Arab party votes. He suggested this indicated a potential reversal of their stated positions, implying they might deny having sought such alliances.
