'Set up an Army Radio station at President’s Residence': Source close to Katz slams Herzog

"If the president is fond of radio stations, he can set one up at the President's Residence," a source close to Katz said, as reported by Israeli media.

A source close to Defense Minister Israel Katz slammed President Isaac Herzog for his Thursday statement against Army Radio's closure.

"If the president is fond of radio stations, he can set one up at the President's Residence," a source close to Katz said, as reported by Israeli media.

"Only the Israeli government will make decisions, in accordance with its authority, regarding the closure of Army Radio."

Herzog said earlier that while he supports correcting Army Radio, he does not think that the media organization should be shut down.

"Yes to correction, no to destruction. When closing a media outlet, especially a public media outlet, it's not just about closing a channel, but a window to the public," Herzog said.
