At a time when international pressure on the Israeli government to stop military operations in the, is growing, is facing political tension and inside it by the loud Jews of his government and the opposition.
As the Israeli media reports, the UTJ party “United Judaism” (UTJ), one of the two lucrative parties involved in the Coalition, threatened to leave if it does not secure at least at the last minute that they will be excluded. In the event of this, the coalition government with the far -right may collapse and the country will lead to elections -even through war operations -.
Tightened the “clay” around Netanyahu
Specifically, former Prime Minister Yair Lapid’s “GES Ant” party proposed a vote next week in parliament to overthrow the government, although the army continues the war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. In order to pass the proposal, it needs to be voted on by 61 MPs from the 120 of Kneset. “Kneset (parliament) is over. It has nowhere to go, “Lapid said.
According to a UTJ spokesman at the Reuters agency, the Undeclent Party will vote in favor of the dismantling of the parliament unless the proposal is approved for the exception of loud young people from the military service.
A source adjacent to the government, which asked not to be named, said that discussions within the government coalition are continuing.
The balances
The Coalition has a majority of 8 seats in Parliament. The UTJ has 7 MPs and its ally, the other SHAS Under Orteress Party, has 11.
The government remains divided as to whether the adults attending theological schools should be excluded from compulsory military service. If the proposal is not approved, the loud MPs threaten to leave the Coalition – if approved, the secular parties may leave.
The latest polls show that Netanyahu’s coalition will lose power if elections are now held. Many voters appear unhappy for the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip.
