Ex-Children's Channel Star Neta Attias Joins Yesh Atid Knesset Race
Yesh Atid party chairman Yair Lapid has introduced Neta Attias as a new candidate for the 26th Knesset. Attias, 37, from Ashkelon, is known to some Israelis for her past role in the popular youth series "Giv'at Napoleon" on the Children's Channel in the early 2000s. Beyond her television past, Attias has been deeply involved in politics for the last decade, serving as the faction manager for Yesh Atid in both coalition and opposition periods.
She is now transitioning from behind-the-scenes work to a direct run for a seat in parliament. Attias emphasizes her focus on young families and the security situation in southern Israel.
In related news, MK Merav Ben Ari commented for the first time on her placement in the Yesh Atid list for the 26th Knesset. Ben Ari secured the second spot on the Yesh Atid list and fourth on the unified "Achva" list. She expressed gratitude for the trust placed in her by party leader Yair Lapid, calling him a "true friend and leader."
