Gadi Eizenkot's Daughter Calls Him Israel's Hope Ahead of PM Bid

Gadi Eizenkot officially announced his candidacy for Israel's prime minister this week, aiming to attract right-wing voters and sway support from opposing blocs. In an interview with Channel 13 News, his daughter, Vered Eizenkot, expressed strong belief in her father's potential, calling him "the hope" Israel needs and saying "everyone needs him." She discussed the political attacks he has faced and the advice she has given him during his campaign.

Vered also addressed speculation about a possible alliance between her father and Benjamin Netanyahu, firmly stating that Netanyahu "will not enter my home." The interview highlighted the personal and political challenges Eizenkot faces as he seeks to broaden his party's appeal ahead of the 2026 elections.

The campaign's success in drawing right-wing voters remains uncertain, but Eizenkot's family support underscores his determination to influence Israel's political future.
