Chants accusing Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the Yisrael Sheli party, of killing his son, who died during the war in Gaza, outside his home have sparked outrage in Israel's political arena. The Yisrael Sheli party condemned the "miserable attack" as a direct result of what it called a "corrupt and unrestrained political leadership" that has abandoned red lines to stay in power.
