Lapid calls soldier's mutiny video 'dangerous and disastrous'

Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid said the "inciting sedition" videos circulated in recent days were "dangerous and disastrous".

His comment on social media platform X came after a video was published on Friday showing a suspected reservist threatening mutiny if the war on Gaza ends before "complete victory", saying he wants to annihilate Palestinians in the besieged enclave.

"The fact that Netanyahu's poison machine and trumpets enthusiastically echo videos calling for fratricidal war and the disbanding of the army is another attempt to escape responsibility for the one who led to the biggest disaster in the history of the Jewish people since the Holocaust," Lapid said. 

"This insanity should be stopped. This government needs to be removed from our lives before it destroys everything that is true and sacred to this country."
