Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot met for a security briefing held at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem on Thursday.

Netanyahu’s military secretary, Maj. Gen. Guy Markizano, is also attending the meeting.

The meeting comes after Eisenkot appealed to Israeli Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara on Wednesday, saying that Netanyahu’s office had failed to arrange security briefings for him. Netanyahu’s office rejected the contention, denouncing Eisenkot’s letter as a “transparent attempt” to politicize national security.

The joint move “shows the strength of our relationship and its ability to adapt to changing circumstances,” the PMO said.
“You couldn’t measure on a Richter scale the concern about El-Sayed,” the Jewish Federations of North America CEO said of the senator-elect from Michigan.
