Against the background of the tension and the upcoming split, the camp explained that this was a coincidence and that their ministers had a predetermined schedule • The announcement of the cabinet meeting came last Wednesday • The relationship between the chairman of New Hope and Gantz has been broken for some time

Another thick hint at the impending separation between Gideon Sa'ar and Benny Gantz: All the ministers of the "State Camp" did not attend the cabinet meeting this morning (Sunday), while the ministers of New Hope arrived. The ministers who participated in the meeting raised questions about the coordinated absenteeism.

Gantz hints at his political future: "Even when the shoulder hurts and it becomes difficult on the journey, I will not put down the stretcher."

The "state camp" responded to Israel Hayom's question on the issue, claiming that it was a coincidence, and that the ministers had a different schedule. The cabinet meeting was announced by the ministers last Wednesday.

This is another sign of separate activity by the two parts of the list for some time.

Israel Hayom reported this morning that Sa'ar holds occasional consultations with only six members of his party. Ceremonies such as lighting Hanukkah candles were held separately, contact with Gantz is less frequent, the political suspicion between the two is clearly felt, and in interviews with Sa'ar and Elkin they emphasize that they are more right-wing than Gantz and his associates, who are at the center of the political map.
