Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot stated that Benjamin Netanyahu must step down as prime minister and that Israel should not hold new elections while Netanyahu leads the government. Eisenkot called the actions of Netanyahu and his circle a direct threat to Israeli democracy, which defines his position in coalition negotiations. The statement came several hours after Yashar's talks with Likud about forming a unity government. By then, reports emerged that information presented as compromising material on the actions of Ra'am activists on election day for the Knesset was passed on by a former employee of the Prime Minister's Office.
