Political contacts: Bennett and Eisenkot prepare for what's next

Over this past weekend, many headlines were captured by reports of a joint meeting held between former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and former Minister Gadi Eisenkot. According to reports published in various news channels, the two discussed the "steps required ahead of the dissolution of the Knesset and the establishment of a Zionist government."

Amit Segal, who is considered close to the institutional Right, emphasized that the two agreed to continue meetings in the near future. At the same time, Dafna Liel detailed that the discussion was held under the title of "The Correction and Hope Bloc," with an emphasis on forming a government "based on a covenant of those who serve."

On the other hand, News in Real Time on Telegram expressed skepticism regarding the immediate significance of the move, noting that "at the moment it is to convey a message of unity, nothing more than that." Other media outlets, including ynet News and News from the Field on Telegram, also reported on the meeting using the official phrasing, without interpreting the depth of the political agreements beyond the general declaration regarding the need for elections and a change in government.
