Since Prime Minister Naftali Bennett took office last June he has not met with his predecessor, now opposition leader, Benjamin Netanyahu to give him a security briefing as is required by law.
The Times of Israel’s sister-site Zman Yisrael has learned Bennett has been sending his military secretary, Avi Gil, to brief the opposition leader instead.
Channel 12 news says Bennett has not invited Netanyahu for the required monthly briefing since the opposition leader will likely refuse to meet.
The last meeting between Netanyahu and Gil took place on March 7, and was related to the Iranian nuclear deal issue, the network says.
