Yashar Party

Opposition leader Yair Lapid hosted change bloc chiefs, including Naftali Bennett and Gadi Eisenkot, on Saturday night to coordinate election moves amid rising internal tensions.

Elsewhere in the bloc, the Democrats gained two seats to reach 11, while B’Yachad remained at 13, Yisrael Beytenu at nine and the joint Reservists-Economic Party at four seats.

Speaking exclusively to the Post, the Yashar leader explains how he would replace Benjamin Netanyahu, his stance on the failures of Oct. 7, and the personal loss that shaped his political mission.

In August, Trump told FOX News that he "may endorse somebody" in the upcoming Israeli election, though he conceded it would be "most appropriate for me to stay out of it."

Eisenkot’s quiet, anti-Bibi strategy is losing momentum as voters seek a leader willing to offer a clear, unifying vision.

Despite a strong ideological tilt toward the Right, support was divided among a wide range of parties rather than concentrated in a single political camp.

The meeting comes as the bloc's leaders seek to tighten coordination while grappling with disagreements over election strategy and the identity of the candidate who will lead the camp.

Polymarket figures reflect the prices of prediction-market contracts, which change with trading activity and can therefore move quickly.

Shaul Meridor claims Ofer Winter secretly lobbied cabinet members and Netanyahu against the Gaza ground invasion, alleging a contrast with his hawkish public image.

Likud claims the videos present journalistic sources and Netanyahu’s remarks in a partial and misleading manner, amounting to “unfair interference” with the party’s election campaign.
