Israeli opposition leader Golan: Soleimani killing was a strategic mistake

Yair Golan, chairman of the Israeli Democrats party, publicly stated that the 2020 killing of Qassem Soleimani was a mistake that worsened Israel's strategic position, contradicting the prevailing Israeli security establishment narrative. He also used derogatory language toward the ultra-Orthodox community, signaling a contentious domestic political stance. The remarks are domestic political positioning ahead of elections, with no immediate market impact.
