The tragic hero of Kibbutz Be'eri refused Netanyahu - and not only him | Report

A report on Channel 13 News says that Avida Bachar, one of the heroes of Kibbutz Be'eri in the October 7 massacre, refused a reserved slot on the Likud list. Netanyahu also tried to recruit former Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon, but the move has not succeeded yet. Bachar lost his wife Dana and son Carmel in the massacre, was seriously wounded, and lost his leg. The report comes amid the approval of eight reserved slots for Netanyahu in the Likud central committee.

This evening (Monday), Channel 13 News reported that Likud offered a reserved slot to Avida Bachar, one of the heroes of Kibbutz Be'eri in the October 7 massacre, but he refused. It was also reported that Netanyahu tried to add former Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon to the list, but the attempt has not succeeded so far. Bachar lost his wife Dana and his son Carmel in the massacre, was seriously wounded, and lost his leg. For about 13 hours, they hid in the safe room, while the terrorists shot at the door, set fire, and threw grenades inside. Avida and his daughter Hadar were seriously wounded and were rescued by Yahalom unit fighters. The report comes amid the approval of eight reserved slots for Netanyahu in the Likud central committee last week, by a razor-thin majority of only five votes.
