The Israeli Yesh Atid party leader Yair Lapid charged Israeli Prime Minister with incitement against left-wing parties and the media.
At the Israel Bar Association Conference held in Tel Aviv on Tuesday Lapid said that Israel is changing into a corrupt state. He added that all of the prime minister’s close allies including multiple former chiefs of staff are under investigation.
Lapid also said that “Any individual convicted of a crime with moral turpitude which most financial crimes have should no longer be a minister” referring to Interior Minister Aryeh Deri.
“Deri has served more than two years in prison for a bribery conviction but was reappointed a minister in the current government and remains in place despite the fact that he is once again under investigation” Lapid highlighted.
