Donald Trump's announcement regarding Benjamin Netanyahu's agreement to halt the deployment of troops to Beirut on the evening of Monday, June 1, faced negative reactions from several prominent political figures in Israel.

Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's Minister of National Security, criticized the decision, stating: "It's time to say no to Trump."

At the same time, Naftali Bennett, former Prime Minister of Israel, accused the government of being unable to maintain security. Referring to security incidents in Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh, Lebanon, and Gaza, he wrote: "The locations are different, but the story is the same; a government that has lost control over Israel's sovereignty." Bennett also stated: "Chaos is seen everywhere, and we will restore security to the citizens of Israel."

Yair Lapid, leader of the opposition in the Israeli government, also criticized Netanyahu, describing his decision as "an announcement of Israel becoming a fully dependent state."
