Prime Minister Netanyahu has pushed back against speculation that Itamar Ben-Gvir is being pushed aside, confirming that he intends to give him a senior Cabinet position if he forms the next government.
However, Netanyahu made clear that Ben-Gvir will not receive either the Defense or National Security portfolio, insisting that both ministries will remain in Likud's hands.
