Cold shoulder over? Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Opposition Chairwoman Tzipi Livni held an official update session on Monday – the first in since April.
Legally, the prime minister and the opposition leader are expected to meet on a monthly basis, but Livni and Netanyahu have been avoiding scheduling such a tête-à-tête for the past several months.
During their meeting, Netanyahu and his military adviser Major-General Yohanan Locker updated Livni on military and security issues, including the recent terror attack in southern Israel.
"Only a political process can prevent a storm in September and allow Israel to act against terrorism," the opposition chairwoman told Netanyahu during the meeting. "The lack of a political process has harmed Israel's capability to defend itself," she added.
Last week, Livni met with Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman for a regular update on foreign and diplomatic affairs.
