MK Efrat Raiten from the Democrats criticized the elections to be held this afternoon in the Likud faction for the chairmanship of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, calling them a "disgrace." In an interview with the ynet studio, she was asked if she had a preferred candidate for the committee chair, and replied: "Everything that is happening this afternoon is a great disgrace from beginning to end. All the work was done on the draft law, we heard from everyone and their mother. There is no other reason - the government feels it is falling, this is Netanyahu's revenge against Edelstein, otherwise there is no explanation for this disgrace that is going to happen today."
