The Yesh Atid party of former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot has responded to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's warning of a possible attack on Israel ahead of the elections, calling for an immediate security briefing to the opposition.
The party raised concern that the warning may be "a political move designed to interfere with the electoral process," according to a statement released today.
Eisenkot's faction is demanding that opposition leaders receive a full security update to assess whether the prime minister's alert is based on genuine intelligence or represents an attempt to influence the upcoming vote.
Netanyahu had warned in recent days of the possibility of an attack timed to affect the election outcome, though he did not provide specific details about the nature or timing of the threat.
The call for transparency comes as Israel heads toward elections in 2026, with security concerns remaining a central issue in the campaign.
