Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the Yashar party, is expected to receive security briefings from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's military secretary following his complaints about the Prime Minister's Office. The office had repeatedly failed to arrange appropriate meetings for Eisenkot despite his requests, according to The Times of Israel. Eisenkot had previously appealed to Israel's Attorney General, requesting intervention to ensure his regular access to intelligence information. He argued that as a Member of Knesset responsible for government formation, and with no official opposition leader currently in place, such access was necessary. The situation has intensified amid reports that Netanyahu is considering a military operation against Iran, reportedly against the objections of security officials. Eisenkot has previously voiced opposition to hasty military decisions, warning of potentially "devastating consequences" for Israeli democracy. Earlier, Avigdor Lieberman had also cautioned Netanyahu against involving Israel in a new war.
