“Lapid Is Our Problem”: Tension in Bennett’s Campaign

Against the backdrop of the party’s decline in the polls, there has been significant tension in recent days at the top of Naftali Bennett’s campaign.

According to a report by Michael Shemesh on Channel 13 News, a senior figure in Bennett’s circle, one of the campaign leaders, voiced harsh criticism of the factors behind the party’s difficulties and said, “We have two ‘attacks’ , one is Yair Lapid, the other is Lior Horev. If there is no change, it will be hard for us to rise.”

People in Bennett’s circle are saying that Yair Lapid “drove away” right-wing voters who supported Bennett, while strategist Lior Horev, who was recently appointed to the role, is struggling to pull the party out of the crisis. According to party sources, significant clashes have taken place in recent days between the campaign leaders, a situation that may require Bennett to make decisions soon.

The “Beyachad” party responded to the report: “This is yet another fabricated story from unknown sources that no one knows.”
