Likud Demands 10-Minute Delay for Opposition Broadcasts Ahead of Election

The forum condemned the demand, accusing Prime Minister Netanyahu of trying to silence victims' families and hide the truth. The rally aims to pressure the government for a state commission of inquiry into the October 7th failures.
