Netanyahu's govt wants Gaza war to continue: Israeli Oppn leader

Israeli Opposition leader Yair Lapid has alleged that PM Benjamin Netanyahu's government prefers that the war continues in Gaza amid public outrage at the latter's reluctance to reach a compromise on the hostage-truce deal with Hamas. "[The war] frees [the government] from the need to face the challenges," Lapid wrote on X. The Israel-Hamas war broke out 11 months back.
