Netanyahu’s ‘Mr Security’ image fades as rivals want him out

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing increasing calls to resign following the recent violence between Israel and Hamas. Many critics argue that Netanyahu failed to protect Israeli citizens and ignored Hamas’ true intentions. Former defense minister Moshe Yaalon accused Netanyahu of engaging in political maneuvering and questioned his ability to lead the military campaign. Netanyahu’s popularity has plummeted in polls, while opposition leader Benny Gantz’s popularity has soared.
