The National Unity Party responded to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech, setting three conditions for the Likud and its partners to join a broad government. The party demanded that they publicly announce the dissolution of their alliance with "extremists," accept the four principles outlined by Gadi Eisenkot, and express willingness to join a government led by Eisenkot.

The party clarified that the national emergency government Eisenkot seeks to establish would only include parties and Knesset members supporting these four principles. Among these principles are the recognition of Hamas as a terrorist organization and a commitment to destroying its military and governing capabilities. The National Unity Party asserted that Netanyahu has failed in dismantling Hamas's rule.

Criticizing Netanyahu's call for unity, the party claimed he has actively worked against it, even during the war. "He who divided, tore apart, and sowed discord in Israeli society is only saying the word 'unity' when he realizes his days in office are numbered," the party stated. They further alleged that Netanyahu undermined previous unity and emergency governments from within and violated agreements with his political partners.

The National Unity Party also accused Netanyahu of breaking his promise by appointing Itamar Ben-Gvir as a senior minister. The party concluded their response by referring to the conditions they presented to the Likud and its allies, stating, "Until then, this is a pathetic spin and nothing more."
