Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for the establishment of a national unity government following his meeting with Gadi Eisenkot, emphasizing the need for joint action against Iran's nuclear activities.

Netanyahu, who noted that he had known Eisenkot for many years, said the meeting reinforced his belief in the necessity of forming a national unity government.

Commenting on Iran's nuclear activities, Netanyahu said, "The Iranian regime, which seeks the destruction of Israel, has once again begun efforts to revive its nuclear program. This regime, which does not hesitate to slaughter thousands of its own people, would not hesitate to use nuclear weapons against us."

Stressing the need to take the necessary steps to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, Netanyahu said, "We must eliminate this existential threat once and for all."

Arguing that a national unity government was essential for the country's security, Netanyahu addressed Eisenkot, saying, "Let us enter a room, without preconditions, set aside all disagreements and boycotts, and reach an agreement for Israel's security and future."

Netanyahu also stated that the issue of mandatory military service could be resolved together with representatives of the Haredi community, emphasizing the need to form a government based on national consensus.
