Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, has made an unusual appeal to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, urging him to exercise restraint and caution and avoid "dangerous adventures" before the swearing-in of a new government. The statement comes amid heightened tensions with Iran and concerns about a potential escalation of conflict with the Islamic Republic, possibly in conjunction with the United States.

He further advised the Prime Minister against placing security system leaders in a difficult constitutional conflict, leaving them with doubts about their duties and the right course of action. Eisenkot expressed hope that they would be allowed to fulfill their sacred duty without such uncertainties.
