Benny Gantz, chairman of the Israel Resilience party, said that rumors his wife Revital was involved with far-left group Machsom Watch (Checkpoint Watch) were ridiculous and completely false, according to an interview published in Israeli daily Yediot Ahronoth.

Members of the all-female Machsom Watch stand at IDF checkpoints in the West Bank to monitor soldiers' behavior. The group asserts that it tries to prevent human-rights abuses but has been accused of harassing IDF soldiers on duty and advocating for the Palestinian cause.

Gantz is the former IDF chief-of-staff.
