Benny Gantz Insists He Will Not Drop Out of Election, Citing Internal Polling
What happened
Benny Gantz released a video statement three weeks before the election, claiming internal research shows over five seats of support and reassuring voters that his party will cross the electoral threshold.
How coverage differs
Outlets such as JDN, Maariv, and Srugim report Gantz's statements directly and focus on his claims of holding over five seats, whereas Ynet interprets the video critically as a covert message that he will step aside if he cannot guarantee crossing the threshold, and Israel Hayom highlights his refusal of a Likud spot alongside potential talks with Eisenkot.
