Lapid to invite Netanyahu for security brief amid Iran nuclear talks - report

Prime Minister Yair Lapid is set to formally invite opposition head Benjamin Netanyahu to a security briefing on the Iran nuclear deal, Ynet reported on Saturday, as indirect negotiations between the US and the Islamic Republic ramped up in the past week.

Netanyahu, who declined to receive security briefings from former prime minister Naftali Bennett, met with Lapid earlier this month during Operation Breaking Dawn.

Later on Saturday evening, the former prime minister requested a security briefing from Lapid, N12 said, after it was reported of Lapid's intentions to request his attendance.
