Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has invited opposition party leaders Yair Lapid and Benny Gantz to join a national unity government, the ruling Likud party said.
Earlier, the leader of the Israeli opposition, Yair Lapid, had made a similar call, proposing to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the formation of an emergency government.
“I will not get into who is to blame and why we were taken by surprise,” Lapid, a former prime minister, said in a post on X. “We will face our enemy united.”
He added: “The state of Israel is at war. It will not be an easy or short war,” also underscoring the danger of a war on multiple fronts.
He offered Netanyahu to form a joint coalition of professionals “that can fight the hard, complex and long war that lies ahead.”
Netanyahu knows he “cannot wage war with the dysfunctional and extremist composition of the government,” Lapid argued, adding that Israel needs responsible leadership.
Netanyahu, leader of the conservative Likud party, has been the head of the most right-wing coalition government in the history of the Jewish state since last December.
