The minister was furious at what he thought was the short notice of holding the meeting discussing the opening of the Kerem Shalom crossing • Minister Akunis: "Did you sleep at noon?" • Ben-Gvir: "I sleep 3 hours a night, and certainly not lunch" • This is how the prime minister responded to the claims leveled at him


"How can such irresponsibility be?" - Quotes from the stormy cabinet meeting: Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir expressed anger at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during the discussion on the issue of opening the Kerem Shalom crossing.

Minister Ben-Gvir to Netanyahu: I don't understand how on Friday afternoon they send notices to the vote, apparently someone counted on the fact that one of the cabinet members slept at noon.

Minister Ofir Akunis: Were you asleep?

Minister Ben-Gvir: I have slept 3 hours a night since the beginning of the war. And certainly not a nap.
It is unacceptable to suddenly change policy without a cabinet discussion. We have a large increase in the number of casualties, we have a large increase in the number of casualties, in my opinion this is completely consistent with the amount of fuel and humanitarian aid that enters the Gaza Strip. But how can it be so irresponsible to decide to open the Kerem Shalom crossing without a thorough discussion and finding in the cabinet? My position is clear and well known: I have always opposed from the first moment, thinking that humanitarian aid should not be brought to them until we receive assistance for our abductees. But in any case, why prevent discussion of this in the cabinet?

Prime Minister Netanyahu: The Americans helped us bring 80 abductees instead of 50 abductees in the deal. And our payoff is to bring in 200 trucks a day. We can't let everyone in through Rafah Crossing, so in order for us to give our money, we have to open the Kerem Shalom crossing.
