Blue and White Chairman Benny Gantz claimed that the alliance between Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid, under the "Yachad" (Together) party, "harms the ability to replace this terrible government and establish a broad, Zionist government." In a social media post, Gantz wrote: "Instead of calling out to right-wing voters, Likud supporters and Religious Zionism members who are looking for another home today, and telling them that we will make sure to establish a broad, Zionist government without extremists that will handle conscription, security and economic challenges - they chose to continue entrenching themselves in bloc-based internal battles and deal with who will lead, instead of where we will lead."
