"If Likud wants to transfer Tally Gotliv to Otzmah Yehudit, it needs to carry out the procedures today, instead of sending empty briefings to the media," Ben-Gvir said in a statement.

Gotliv later hinted at a political future outside Likud and said she was considering leaving for another right-wing party, saying “I would consider it seriously.”

Gotliv added she remains "loyal to the Likud and the prime minister," but stated that she would consider an offer to join Otzma Yehudit.
