Dimona Mayor Benny Biton was interviewed on a program on 103FM. Biton, who previously traveled with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a meeting with President Bill Clinton, praised government investments in peripheral towns in the south, describing them as a "revolution." Alongside this, he called for directing resources to the north of the country. Biton warned against rushing to write off Netanyahu politically, and called for the formation of a broad unity government after the elections. He recounted that he predicted Netanyahu would receive 62-63 seats, and Netanyahu corrected him, saying he received 64. Biton addressed the change in the political system following October 7, which he called a "very great disaster," but also noted that a "new Middle East" has emerged with changes in Gaza, Syria, and Iran.
