Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid on Monday said the country is going through the most serious political crisis in its history, and that Netanyahu made a mistake by not participating in the Egypt summit. 

“Even after the signing of the Gaza agreement, the State of Israel remains in the midst of the most dangerous political crisis in its history. 142 countries have recognized a Palestinian state, while the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund has decided to withdraw its investments from Israel, including investments in Israeli banks,” Lapid said. 

“International companies have canceled their participation in projects inside Israel, and in Europe, Israeli products are being silently removed from store shelves,” he said. 

“Senior Israeli officials have left their posts, while the head of the commission, Tzachi Hanegbi, is about to step down due to a pending indictment against him,” he added. 

Lapid said that Netanyahu made a “grave mistake” by not participating in the international summit in Sharm el-Sheikh.
