Member of Knesset Gadi Eisenkot responded to accusations leveled by Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman, calling on the public to ignore "spins" and "background noise," outlets Reshet 13 and Kan 11 reported. The response follows Liberman's earlier claims that Eisenkot is maneuvering to form a government led by Benjamin Netanyahu.

Eisenkot stressed that "the people of Israel will not forgive politicians who do not rise to the occasion," adding that "change is on the way." According to news site JDN, he noted that he is working to mobilize additional voters to achieve a decisive outcome of more than 61 Knesset seats for the change bloc.
