Israeli official: PM’s security consultation was nothing out of ordinary

Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s security consultation this afternoon was not urgent or extraordinary, an Israeli official tells The Times of Israel.

“The government holds regular ministerial discussions about various issues on the agenda,” says the official, “and that is what it is doing now.”

Netanyahu’s schedule is being watched closely by outside observers, as they look for some indication as to the timing and nature of Israel’s response to the Iranian missile attack last week.
