Anti-Netanyahu opposition parties are holding talks on plans to quickly replace Knesset Speaker Ohana, according to reports from Times of Israel. The move is part of broader political manoeuvring among parties seeking to challenge the current government coalition.

The opposition’s stated goal would be to establish a state commission of inquiry into the failures surrounding the October 7, 2023 attacks. This represents a significant political development as it signals potential shifts in Knesset dynamics and governmental oversight.

However, there are complications to the plan. Avigdor Liberman, a key opposition figure, may be reluctant to ally with Arab MKs who are also part of the anti-Netanyahu bloc, potentially complicating efforts to secure the necessary votes for Speaker replacement and commission establishment.
