Yonatan Urich, an advisor to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reportedly used ChatGPT during the recent conflict to generate ideas for improving the public image of Qatar's prime minister and emir. According to Channel 12 News, Urich sought to formulate three key messages for Israeli citizens, global Jewish communities, and US opinion leaders, aiming to "whiten Qatar and improve its image."

The report adds to previous revelations in the "Qatargate" affair, which involves suspicions that individuals close to Netanyahu worked to advance Qatar's interests during the war while serving in the Prime Minister's Office. It was previously reported that Urich and other advisors were involved in promoting positive messages about Qatar in the Israeli media.

Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the National Unity Party, strongly criticized the revelations, accusing Netanyahu of allowing a "Qatari agent" to operate within his office and exert psychological terror against Israelis. Eisenkot demanded Urich's immediate dismissal, stating that a reasonable prime minister would remove him permanently. Eisenkot vowed that "in 15 days they are going home," referring to the current government.
