Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly accused former IDF chief of staff and opposition MK Gadi Eisenkot of opposing the strike in Iran and leaving the government during wartime, stating that Eisenkot has no viable government without Yair Golan and the Arab parties. The comments were posted on Telegram.
The statement, posted on Telegram Tuesday evening, adds to a series of political exchanges between Prime Minister Netanyahu and opposition MK Gadi Eisenkot. The Zioneer has previously reported on Netanyahu and his allies criticizing Eisenkot's opposition to the government's war management in Iran. In this post, Netanyahu directly accused Eisenkot of opposing the Iran strike and abandoning the government during wartime, and linked him to opposition figures Yair Golan and the Arab parties. The post did not provide specific details on the alleged opposition or abandonment. The claim remains unverified by independent sources.
