Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu briefs opposition leader Yair Lapid on the military’s ongoing Operation Shield and Arrow, a day after Israel assassinated three Palestinian Islamic Jihad leaders in response to rocket fire in Israel’s south.
The Prime Minister’s Office says that Netanyahu updated Lapid on the mission’s objectives and details, and “additional security matters.”
Netanyahu’s military secretary, Avi Gil, was also present in the premier’s Jerusalem office for the briefing.
