Netanyahu leaned on his top rival to help unify Israel. Now, Benny Gantz is more popular

Associated Press  

JERUSALEM — The top political rival of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting with U.S. leaders in Washington this week to discuss the war in Gaza. Benny Gantz is a key member of Israel’s War Cabinet whose popularity is on the rise — and who has a pivotal role to play in the country’s future. Gantz, 64, is a centrist politician who joined Netanyahu’s ultranationalist and religious government soon after Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel. While the government wouldn’t collapse if Gantz leaves, large demonstrations could ramp up the pressure on Netanyahu’s deeply unpopular coalition to hold early elections.
