Likud Party MK and former transportation minister Miri Regev on Monday received a wave of backlash online on Monday after implying Labor Party MK Ibtisam Mara'ana-Menuhin was a Hamas asset, in response to the Labor MK's appointment as acting member in the Foreign Affairs and Defense committee.
Regev referred to the story as "a successful appointment by [Hamas leader] Yahya Sinwar to the Foreign Affairs and Defense committee," along with a screenshot of a news about report about the Labor Party's sole Arab MK being appointed to the role.
