Integrity Party leader Gadi Eisenkot accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of posing a national security threat through his push to adopt cryptocurrency as a tool to circumvent international economic sanctions. Eisenkot, a key rival in Israel's upcoming election, criticized Netanyahu on social media for leading the country into isolation and damaging its economy. Netanyahu had previously stated he was considering using digital assets to bypass sanctions imposed on Israel by other nations. The criticism marks a significant escalation in political debate over crypto policy in Israel, with opposition figures framing the proposal as reckless rather than strategic.
