Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday asked war cabinet member and Minister without Portfolio Benny Gantz to stay in the country's emergency government while the deadline given for June 8 to draw up a comprehensive plan to resolve the conflict with Hamas expired.
"This is the time for unity and not for division. We must remain united in the face of the great tasks before us. I call on Benny Gantz - do not leave the emergency government. Don't give up on unity," Netanyahu wrote on his social media platforms.
Over the past few days, Israeli media indicated that Gantz was expected to resign on Saturday once the deadline passed. However, it was reported he canceled his speech after four hostages were rescued.
