Netanyahu reportedly warns he could leave Likud if denied 10 reserved slate slots
Maariv reported that Netanyahu told Likud Central Committee chairman Haim Katz he would leave Likud if his demand for ten reserved seats on the 26th-Knesset slate is not granted, ahead of the constitution committee's reconvened Sunday vote on the primary system. Katz reportedly warned the move 'could crush Likud,' while Netanyahu countered that the standoff itself is the real threat. Allies cautioned that a split would only benefit Eisenkot, Lieberman, and Bennett.
