According to one political source, Michaeli made it clear to Sarah Netanyahu that she would make an effort to provide a safety net for the Netanyahu leadership and would not act to topple the government. Those close to Michaeli denied this claim. Labor Party leader Michaeli said in response: "I asked to meet with Sarah Netanyahu to ask her to promote the hostage deal. I hope that Mrs. Netanyahu will use her influence in the best way possible and promote the return of the hostages to their homes as soon as possible. Everything else is nonsense." The Prime Minister's Office declined to comment.
