Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked the ministers (Sunday) during the cabinet meeting not to express themselves in a way that would harm Israel's image, Ynet reporter Itamar Eichner published.
According to Netanyahu, the words spoken could cause damage to Israel's explanation, "and if you don't know - don't speak out", he told the ministers. As you may remember, yesterday during the press conference the Prime Minister sent a clear message to the Minister of Heritage Amichai Eliyahu after he claimed that dropping atomic bombs on Gaza was an option. Netanyahu said that if he spoke like that again he would not be part of the government.
Another controversial statement was made by Agriculture Minister Avi Dichter who claimed that the devastating situation caused in Gaza by Hamas meets the definition of "The Nakba of Gaza 2023".
