MK Gadi Eisenkot is expected to soon quit the National Unity party led by former IDF chief of staff Benny Gantz, according widespread Hebrew media reports.

Sources close to Eisenkot are quoted in the reports as saying that the primaries proposed by Gantz are not sufficient to keep him in the fold, and that though he has good personal ties with the National Unity leader, remaining in the party “would not allow him to realize his ideas and ideology.”
