Israeli political party alliances and restructuring
Overview
As Israel prepares for the 26th Knesset elections, various political factions are forming alliances and restructuring their leadership.
On the right, Bezalel Smotrich of the Religious Zionist Party and Moshe Feiglin of Zehut have announced a 13-candidate alliance. Smotrich will lead the ticket with Feiglin in the second position, a move intended to consolidate the national-religious camp and prevent the loss of right-wing votes. The leaders noted that this cooperation focuses on issues such as national security, the judicial system, and settlement policy.
On the center-left, Yesh Atid is undergoing restructuring following the departure of veteran members. Party leader Yair Lapid has entered into a joint list called B’Yachad with former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett. Under this agreement, Yesh Atid holds several high-ranking positions on the list, which includes figures such as Merav Ben-Ari and Noam Tibon. Despite initial polling strength, the B’Yachad alliance has seen a recent decline in momentum as other political formations emerge.
