Israeli opposition leader of the Kadima Party, Tzipi Livni, stated Wednesday that hundreds of thousands of Israelis are trying to find ways to leave Israel due to what she described as bleak political situation and lack of vision of the current government.

Israeli Ynet News reported that hundreds of thousands of Israelis are trying to arrange foreign passports for themselves and their children in order to leave the country due to feelings of desperation.

She added that the new government in Israel lack vision as it’s is solely focused on its minister and deputy ministers are only focused on their own survival.

Livni stated that only Kadima officials and members of Knesset are acting for a better future in the country as the Netanyahu-led coalition lack a clear path, the Ynet News added.
