Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid has criticized far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir for an 'unforgivable tweet' that has been interpreted as ridiculing the attack on Iran. Ben Gvir published a one-word post on X, consisting only of a slang word meaning 'lame' or 'weak,' just hours after explosions were heard in Iran on Friday.
Israel had carried out a military strike on Iran, a US official told source. Israel has not commented and Iran has not identified the source of the attack. Neither politician explicitly said that their comments referred to the attack on Iran.
