Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir slammed Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for returning Israel’s north to the Stone Age instead of doing so to Lebanon.
"You promised to return Lebanon to the Stone Age, but in the meanwhile, you're returning [Israel's] north to the Stone Age," Ben Gvir wrote on X.
Ben Gvir’s remark came after Gallant denounced him on X for calling on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to fire Shin Bet security service chief Ronen Bar, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.
"Instead of attacking me on Twitter, start attacking Hezbollah in Lebanon," the national security minister added.
