Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Brigadier General (res.) Ofer Vinter have reached an agreement regarding Gadi Eisenkot, despite Ben-Gvir's ongoing criticism of Eisenkot. The agreement centers on Eisenkot's alleged call to halt the war before the operation in Rafah. The ruling Likud party responded sharply to Eisenkot, questioning how he intended to dismantle Hamas without the approval of his "partners" Mansour Abbas and Ahmad Tibi. The Likud statement suggested that all achievements in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran only occurred after Eisenkot left the government and was replaced by the speaker in the war cabinet. They further accused Eisenkot, now a candidate for Tibi and Abbas, of promising to conquer Gaza and labeled him part of the "Arabs and Left camp."
In response to the right-wing attacks, the "Yesh!" party issued a strong statement directed at Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Likud. They claimed Netanyahu and the Likud have misled Israeli citizens for 17 years, strengthening Hamas. The party asserted that if the government had focused more on its mission and less on crafting talking points, the October 7th attacks might have been prevented. The statement concluded by noting that the government would be replaced in 12 days.
