Blue and White Chairman Benny Gantz decided on Wednesday to remove MK Gadi Jibrakan from the party list. This is in the background of contacts that Yavarkan has with the Likud for his armor for their party's list. Gantz made it clear that the Knesset's ouster, which was placed in 32nd place on the party list, was done in coordination with Talmud party chairman Moshe Ya'alon, to which Yabarkan belonged. According to Ya'alon's statement, "in the light of his conduct and his behavior that is indicative of his values, he is ousted from the Talmud party and will no longer be included in the Blue and White list for the 23rd Knesset."

Likud officials say the impeachment of Yarkan by blue-and-white is likely to ease his retirement and transition to Likud procedurally. A party is trying to persuade Jibran to join the list and get armor as the Ethiopian community's representative in the elections, while another white representative of the community, MK Pnina Tamanu Mish Tesh Mish Atid. If the armor is approved, petitions by MKs against the armor are not expected to be approved by the party center.

Jibrakan has not yet commented.

Jibran accepted a proposal to join Likud after the April 21 Knesset elections. In those days, the Likud tried to form a government and the coalition stood at 60 seats, and Jibran's vote could produce a majority for swearing in a narrow right-wing government and preventing the second-term elections. Jibran then chose not to accept the offer.
