Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s associates have signalled they will not insist on including Otzma Yehudit (Ben Gvir’s party) if unity government negotiations proceed, according to Ynet reporting. The message represents a potential shift in coalition dynamics as Netanyahu’s team continues efforts to form a unity government.
The development comes as the Eisenkot-led Democratic bloc reportedly agrees to form special committees to repeal four judicial overhaul laws, including those weakening the Attorney General’s powers and changing judicial appointments procedures, according to Times of Israel reporting.
Netanyahu’s associates have directly communicated this flexibility to Eisenkot, suggesting that if unity talks commence, they would not insist on the far-right Otzma Yehudit party’s participation. This represents a significant concession that could facilitate broader coalition formation.
