On the occasion of Tu B'Av, the holiday of love, the chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, Member of Knesset Avigdor Lieberman, shared a festive photo and a warm greeting dedicated to his wife, Ella. In the photo posted on social media, Lieberman appears alongside his wife wearing a suit and a kippah, adding words of love and appreciation in honor of the Jewish holiday.

The couple's gesture and the traditional look received many reactions online. The personal greeting presented a more family-oriented side of the veteran politician, who chose to mark Tu B'Av with a public expression of gratitude to his wife for their shared journey and support over the years.

"Happy Tu B'Av, my Ella! More than four decades have passed since we chose to walk together, and I am still grateful for this choice every single day. We built a home and a family together, accumulated countless memories, experienced great joys and also complex days. Throughout the entire way, you were by my side with love, wisdom, patience, and strengths that only you have."

Alongside the festive marking of the day of love, Lieberman continues to present his firm political positions, particularly on the issue of equality in the burden of enlistment. Parallel to the personal post, the Yisrael Beiteinu chairman addressed the Supreme Court's decision to issue an interim order freezing the law to prevent the arrest of deserters – a petition filed by his faction.

In a post regarding security and civil issues, Lieberman wrote: "I welcome the Supreme Court's decision. No one can be above the law, and certainly not draft dodgers. It is inconceivable that while those who serve bear the burden, the government of the October 7 massacre provides protection to draft dodgers from a certain sector."
