Blue and White party chairman Benny Gantz addressed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after proposing to form a "hostage redemption government" with Yair Lapid and Avigdor Lieberman, saying: "Netanyahu, against extortion I am offering a responsible alternative - adopt it. To my friends in the opposition, I am certain you also want what's best for the country. Let's offer to join the government. If Netanyahu refuses - then we'll know we did everything."
