“Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday asked war cabinet minister Benny Gantz not to resign after threats to quit over the lack of post-war strategy for the Gaza Strip.

"I call on Benny Gantz -- do not leave the emergency government. Don't give up on unity," Netanyahu said on his X account.

Benny Gantz had canceled a planned news conference on Saturday where “Israeli” media had speculated he would announce his resignation – after previously issuing an ultimatum to Netanyahu.
