Unity Bid Called a Trick

Benjamin Netanyahu called for the formation of an emergency government comprising pro-Israel parties, saying it was necessary to confront what he described as the Iranian threat. Gadi Eisenkot called the appeal “another new ploy” and a media maneuver, noting that teams from their parties had already agreed to meet on Sunday for negotiations. He said the Likud’s participation in a government led by him was conditional on recognizing his principles and distancing itself from extremist forces. President Isaac Herzog had tasked Eisenkot with forming the government after he received the recommendation of 67 of the 120 lawmakers. He has 28 days to complete the task.
