Vatori replied that Kariv was "both stupid and silly."

'Crossing red lines'

MK Kariv said at the end of the debate, "Once again, Deputy Speaker of the Knesset Vatori crossed all the red lines and trampled all the ethical lines. The man does not deserve to hold the position of Deputy Speaker of the Knesset and member of the presidency. And we will stand for his removal from the position in the coming days."
