Netanyahu, Eisenkot Discuss Security and Political Challenges in Occupied Territories
According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, a joint statement from the Prime Minister’s Office of the Israeli regime and the National Unity Party announced that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and party leader Gadi Eisenkot convened to review the latest political and security challenges.
The meeting took place on Thursday, November 12, 2026 (Aban 21, 1405), at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem. Major General Guy Marziano, Netanyahu’s military secretary, was also in attendance.
This session was organized in the wake of recent disputes between Netanyahu and Eisenkot concerning access to intelligence and security reports. Eisenkot had previously requested regular and comprehensive reports on threat assessments and had asked the cabinet’s legal advisor to intervene to guarantee his access to this information.
Furthermore, Eisenkot had issued warnings regarding the undertaking of non-essential military actions and security decisions without adequate oversight, particularly while the Israeli regime’s cabinet is in a transitional phase.
The meeting occurred as Eisenkot has been tasked with forming the next government of the Israeli regime, with ongoing negotiations for the formation of a new cabinet.
Eisenkot, the former Chief of Staff of the Israeli regime’s army, was appointed to form the new cabinet following the recent elections. His disagreements with Netanyahu over the oversight of the caretaker government’s security decisions and access to classified information had recently become a focal point of political tension within the regime.
