Eisenkot Urges Netanyahu to Restrain Military Decisions Until New Government Forms

Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot has urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to exercise restraint on security decisions that could wait until a new government is formed. He also asked the attorney-general to ensure he receives regular security briefings from Netanyahu. Eisenkot’s appeal followed reports of renewed disagreement between Netanyahu and IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir over possible military action in Iran. Netanyahu’s office defended the government’s security decisions and accused Eisenkot of politicising sensitive matters. Eisenkot responded by questioning Netanyahu’s refusal to provide briefings and his reported attempt to delay a meeting of the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee. The post also questions whether Nigerian Jewish supporters who previously described Eisenkot as more ruthless than Netanyahu will turn to someone else if he disappoints them.
