After the 100-day grace period for the third Netanyahu government passed, dozens of key Likud members met in Holon on Tuesday (June 11). Together, they came out publicly against the prime minister’s intentions to bring about full consolidation of former Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman's party — Yisrael Beiteinu with the Likud.
This is the sounding of a warning bell for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been losing his hold over his party, ever since the failed election campaign that he waged.
