PM rejects Lieberman comments against Likud ministers

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman following statements the latter made Monday against Likud ministers regarding their failure to support probing leftist groups. "The Likud is united in the need to act against organizations working against Israel and the IDF in an illegal manner. Nevertheless, there are various opinions as to how this policy should be implemented," Netanyahu said.

"All the Likud ministers are concerned with the State's security and its residents and do not need anyone's validation," he added. (Attila Somfalvi)
