Bennett's "Yachad" Party Unveils Knesset Candidate List
The "Yachad" bloc, led by Naftali Bennett, has released its list of candidates for the 26th Knesset elections. Bennett heads the list, followed by Keren Turner in second place, Liran Avissar Ben Horin in third, Michal Hirsch-Nagari in fourth, and former MK Eitan Ginsburg rounding out the top five. Olesya Kantor, head of the bloc's Russian-speaking staff, is positioned at 15th place.
This announcement follows a similar unveiling by Yair Lapid, leader of the "Yesh Atid" party, who presented his candidates the previous day. Lapid's list features Knesset member Merav Ben-Ari in second place, retired Major General Noam Tibon in third, and former minister Merav Cohen in fourth. Other notable candidates on the "Yesh Atid" list include Ram Ben-Barak, Naor Shiri, Vladimir Belyak, Yuray Lahav-Herzano, Yasmin Sachs-Friedman, and Neta Atias.
The "Yachad" bloc plans to officially present its full candidate list at an event in Tel Aviv on September 6.
