Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett responded to criticism leveled at him following the announcement that his family would travel abroad, a few days after he recommended not to do so, Arutz Sheva reports.

“The Bennett family is subject to exactly the same rules that apply to all Israeli citizens. I understand the criticism, but since Friday we have learned more about the variant and in which countries it has spread, and the Corona Cabinet has made decisions on which countries it is permitted to travel and under what conditions,” Bennett wrote on Facebook.

He added, “My family (without me, I am staying with you …) was supposed to go on vacation during the Chanukah  holiday in a country that turned out to be red. The vacation was canceled immediately, and after the new rules became clear, they booked a holiday to a country to which it is permitted to travel. Everyone is traveling in accordance with the restrictions and, of course, will stay in isolation as required. The citizens of Israel are just as important to me as my children.”
