Defense Minister Israel Katz criticized the "change bloc" for seeking to include Islamist and nationalist Arab parties in the government, drawing a parallel to Egypt's outlawing of the Muslim Brotherhood. Katz expressed his views via the Defense Ministry spokesperson's WhatsApp group, urging a national consensus against cooperating with parties he believes are hostile to Israel. This comes after the Democrats sent Katz a warning letter about his alleged misuse of the spokesperson for political purposes.
