Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid has called for early elections, saying the government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu must go since it has failed to return the hostages held in Gaza since October 7, TRT reports.
“One after the other, the ministers of the government go on air this morning and attack the families of the abductees. You are out of your mind. Young women, elderly people, [and] children were kidnapped on your watch,” Lapid said on X.
“For half a year you fail to bring them home, and then you blame their families? This government of destruction must go home. Election now.”
