Yair Netanyahu, son of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, launched a scathing attack on Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the National Unity party, via his X account. Netanyahu referred to Eisenkot as a "golem" and a "puppet on a string of the strongest and darkest elements in the country and the world," suggesting Israel "will not survive him." He further claimed that Iranians, Palestinians, and Arab nations are celebrating Eisenkot's leadership.

The National Unity party responded with a jab at both Benjamin Netanyahu and his son, implying their messaging had not reached them. "It appears: the Likud's new message sheet has not yet arrived in Miami," the party stated, referencing Yair Netanyahu's location at the time of his post. The exchange occurred while Prime Minister Netanyahu was reportedly calling for unity.
