Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called opposition leader Yair Lapid to apologize for a scheduling mishap that caused their planned security briefing meeting to be canceled. The meeting, originally set for Jerusalem and later moved at Netanyahu's request, was missed after Lapid waited for an extended period at the new location without Netanyahu showing up. Lapid eventually left, prompting Netanyahu to reach out personally and express regret for the confusion, which Lapid attributed to disorganization within the Prime Minister's office. The two leaders have since agreed to reschedule the briefing for the following week.
Lapid also commented on a recent Israeli airstrike in Syria, describing it as a justified action but criticizing Israel's broader foreign policy. He stated that Israel cannot rely solely on military strikes and suggested exploring diplomatic options to de-escalate tensions before resorting to force.
