Eisenkot Warns Netanyahu Against 'Dangerous Steps' Before New Government Swears In
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, has sent a stern official letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, cautioning him against making critical decisions while lacking a parliamentary majority. Eisenkot emphasized that Netanyahu is heading a caretaker government that no longer holds the Knesset's confidence, with only 46 members supporting his tenure.

In the complex and sensitive political climate, Eisenkot stated that Netanyahu has a duty to exercise extreme caution and responsibility regarding national and security decisions. He warned that deploying security forces without an immediate, direct threat that cannot be postponed could have devastating consequences for Israeli democracy and public trust in governing institutions.

Eisenkot urged the Prime Minister to demonstrate national responsibility, exercise restraint, and refrain from taking dangerous actions that could wait until a new government, with the Knesset's confidence, is legally sworn in.
