Minister Shlomo Karai sharply attacked Ofer Winter, accusing him of siding with Palestinians, during an appearance on Channel 14. The criticism comes as Prime Minister Netanyahu has reportedly instructed Likud party members to aggressively attack Winter and pressure him to withdraw from the election race. This directive signals a growing internal conflict within the Likud party regarding Winter's candidacy. Karai’s statement, delivered on Channel 14, represents a significant escalation in the dispute. The directive from Netanyahu suggests the party views Winter as a threat, possibly due to his political positions or potential impact on election outcomes. This situation highlights the intense competition and strategic maneuvering ahead of the upcoming elections in Israel. The nature of these attacks raises questions about the level of political polarization within the Likud party.
