Israeli opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu and his family will leave the country�s official prime minister�s residence no later than July 10, Netanyahu and Israel�s new prime minister Naftali Bennett said.
Netanyahu was unseated as prime minister earlier this month. Foreign Minister Yair Lapid and Prime Minister Naftali Bennett succeeded in cobbling together a government in the aftermath of Israel�s fourth consecutive election in two years.
Netanyahu, who served for 12 years as prime minister until Bennett�s government was sworn in last week, has yet to move out of the prime minister�s residence in Jerusalem.
In a joint statement late Saturday, Bennett and Netanyahu�s offices said they had agreed that the Netanyahu family would leave the residence no later than July 10. Thereafter, the statement said, �the residence will transfer to the use of Prime Minister Bennett.�
Netanyahu has repeatedly vowed to topple the newly formed government, which he has called a �dangerous leftist government.� It is comprised of eight parties, including several headed by former allies and proteges of Netanyahu, smaller liberal parties and an Islamist faction.
