Opposition leaders Naftali Bennett and Gadi Eisenkot issued sharp criticism of the emerging agreement on Monday, with Bennett calling it a 'dangerous turn for Israel's security' and Eisenkot labeling it a 'dire outcome,' according to Israeli media reports.
Opposition leaders Naftali Bennett and Gadi Eisenkot on Monday sharply criticized the emerging agreement, with Bennett warning it represents a 'dangerous turn for Israel's security' and Eisenkot calling it a 'dire outcome.' The criticism comes as coalition figures have responded hesitantly to the deal, which has drawn broad opposition fire. As The Zioneer reported on June 14, coalition reactions have been mixed, with opposition leaders moving quickly to attack. The Bennett-Eisenkot rift, previously described as 'destructive' to opposition cohesion, appears set aside for now as both leaders unite in their condemnation of the deal. The specific terms of the agreement remain unconfirmed.
