Jerusalem, 12 November, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office confirmed he will give a security briefing to Gadi Eisenkot on Thursday.
The announcement follows a public confrontation Wednesday, when Eisenkot, tasked by President Isaac Herzog with forming the next government, demanded regular security briefings and urged Netanyahu to avoid military operations that could wait until a new government takes office. His comments came amid reports of disagreements over potential Israeli action against Iran.
Netanyahu’s office rejected the criticism, accusing Eisenkot of politicizing national security and insisting that government decisions were guided solely by security considerations.
