Yair Golan, the leader of the centre-left Democrats, has slammed the agreement, Al Jazeera reports.

“In one signature stroke, immense military achievements secured with the courage of our pilots and the blood of our fighters have been erased, while Netanyahu stood on the sidelines – weak, ill, isolated, and powerless,” he said in a social media post.

Golan called the deal “the culmination of many years of failure,” adding that Netanyahu is “ending his tenure with Israel’s enemies stronger, Israel weaker, and the deterrence built with the blood of our fighters eroding before our eyes.”
