Yashar! with eisenkot

The opposition parties reached 70 seats, compared to the current coalition parties who received 50 of the 120 Knesset seats, the N12 poll found.

Channel 12 poll shows Gadi Eisenkot’s Yashar leading with 24 seats, while Eisenkot remains ahead of Netanyahu as the preferred candidate for prime minister.

The poll found that 83% of voters oppose the inclusion of Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) parties in the coalition that is formed after the elections, while only 8% support it.

Additionally, the new party led by Chili Tropper and Yoaz Hendel failed to cross the electoral threshold, but pulled voters from Religious Zionist Party, knocking them from five seats to four.

Eisenkot’s petition accused Smotrich of attempting to “spread hatred, lies, and mislead voters,” stating that “there is no place for lying, deception, and manipulation in the current election system.

Since the merger between Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid, the joint party has lost 10 seats in about two months and has declined this week to just 18 seats.

According to the warning, Kobi had claimed during the program that Cohen had pushed for deceased Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar to be released as part of the deal to return Gilad Shalit in 2011.
