Minister Itamar Ben Gvir opened a media front against presenter Yinon Magal in a stormy interview on 103FM. Ben Gvir attacked the possibility of forming a unity government with Gadi Eisenkot, whom he defined as "ultra-left," and warned that his inclusion in the government would harm the right-wing agenda. He clarified that he aspires to be appointed Minister of Defense in the next term, and said that if he gets enough votes, he will be Defense Minister and Tali Gottlieb will be Justice Minister.
