Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and opposition head Yair Lapid have held a rare face-to-face meeting, in order to discuss the security situation.
A picture of the meeting at military headquarters in Tel Aviv shows both politicians sitting tensely as military secretary Avi Gil looks on with a nervous smile.
On Twitter, Channel 12 correspondent Amit Segal juxtaposes the picture with one from a year ago when the tables were turned, the shelves were emptier and the smiles easier to come by.
