Gadi Eisenkot's 'Yashar' Party Gains Support in Religious Zionist Hub

Gadi Eisenkot's "Yashar" party has secured support from Givat Shmuel, a prominent center of the Religious Zionist community in central Israel. Gal Lénzer, a member of the Givat Shmuel city council, has publicly declared his backing for the party and its members. Lénzer is scheduled to host a "beit chug" (a private gathering) at his home on Sunday, September 6th, featuring former minister Matan Kahana, a senior figure in Eisenkot's party.

During the event, Kahana will engage with local residents in a discussion titled "Where is the State of Israel Headed?". Lénzer confirmed his support to "Srugim," stating, "The State of Israel needs honest and good people to lead it." His endorsement is particularly noteworthy given Givat Shmuel's strong identification with the national-religious public.

The choice of Kahana as the guest speaker is also significant. Kahana, who himself emerged from sectoral politics, is now a leading member of Eisenkot's party. His participation in the gathering underscores "Yashar's" effort to appeal to voters within the Religious Zionist sector as the party prepares for elections.

Lénzer's support extends beyond mere endorsement; he is opening his home to host the political event with Kahana, where they are expected to meet with residents and discuss the nation's future.
