Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Israel will soon face international pressure to accept a nuclear-armed Iran, calling for the formation of a unity government to strengthen the country’s position. Netanyahu stated Israel can be expected to be pressured to “retreat from its monumental achievements and from the major progress made regarding security zones.”
In a furious speech at the Knesset demanding a unity government, Netanyahu claimed Arab MKs seek Israel’s destruction. His remarks drew sharp criticism from opposition figures, including security chief Eisenkot who slammed Netanyahu’s “hate-filled speech” and said it proves him unfit for office.
The speech also provoked calls for answers regarding aides’ Qatar ties and the ongoing lack of a comprehensive October 7 investigation. Opposition MKs demanded accountability during the swearing-in ceremony.
