Chikli Urges Right-Wing Voters Not to Back Bennett

Amichai Chikli urged right-wing voters on October 17 not to support Naftali Bennett, accusing him of deceiving that electorate. In a Hebrew post on X, Chikli said he had no objection to left-wing voters choosing Bennett or Yair Lapid. He directed right-wing voters toward remarks by retired Maj. Gen. Noam Tibon, whom he described as a senior figure in Bennett’s party. Chikli attached a video to the post. He framed the electoral choice as one between the right and Palestine.
