Eisenkot does not rule out sitting with Netanyahu but says 'he needs to be replaced'

Former army chief Gadi Eisenkot has stated that while he believes Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should be replaced, he does not entirely rule out working with him if Netanyahu is reelected. In a recent radio interview, Eisenkot emphasized that anyone in office during the events of October 7 should step down, but clarified he is not boycotting Netanyahu outright. Eisenkot, who recently launched a new political platform and is part of the opposition change bloc, is working with other parties to create a coordinated alternative to Netanyahu's government. Despite leaving his previous party, Eisenkot dismissed claims of deep ideological rifts and reiterated the need for a new governing coalition.
