Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar party has issued an unusually sharp response to Channel 14 and Kol Chai Radio political correspondent Shlomo Rizel following a report broadcast on the "Israel This Morning" program. The report claimed Eisenkot was conducting negotiations with foreign actors regarding an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon.
"The report published by Shlomo Rizel on Channel 14 is an absolute lie, devoid of any factual basis, which never was and never happened," the party stated in an official response. Sources close to the party chairman made clear they have no intention of letting the matter pass.
"Atomic Pressure Ahead of Government Change"
The party demanded immediate and unequivocal action from both the channel and the correspondent: "We demand that Channel 14 immediately remove the false report, and that Shlomo Rizel publish a public, clear and unequivocal apology for spreading lies. We will not settle for explanations or evasions — we demand immediate deletion of the false publication and an explicit apology."
