The Israeli government is set to appoint a new deputy head of the National Security Council, responsible for shaping national policy on Israel's security and strategic issues. This appointment, announced on a Thursday evening news broadcast by Kan News, comes roughly three months before the upcoming elections. The position is for a four-year term with a possible two-year extension. This move is part of a series of last-minute government appointments to civil service roles in recent months, some of which are trust-based positions while others are not. Several attempts to fill key roles, including State Comptroller, Civil Service Commissioner, National Security Council head and deputy, as well as the head of the public diplomacy apparatus, have either been made or are ongoing. Additionally, ministers have approved lifetime security for Minister Netanyahu, and Prime Minister Gantz commented on his polling status, stating he has a constituency that is unaware of its existence.
