🇮🇱🗳️ NEWS: Yashar party chairman Gadi Eisenkot is focusing considerable effort on pushing both Shas and United Torah Judaism to join a government under his leadership, according to a source close to him. "Eisenkot is going all out to convince the ultra-Orthodox parties, both Shas and United Torah Judaism, to enter the government," the source said. "It won't be with the Arabs. We believe it's possible." According to the source, the main obstacle is Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman, who pledged before the election that he would not join a government with Frum parties. The source said Liberman was facing intense pressure from potential coalition partners not to oppose the inclusion of those parties in the next government. Meanwhile, Eisenkot and leaders of the bloc seeking to replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are coordinating efforts to remove Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana at the new Knesset's first session.
