Shas Party Submits Knesset List for Approval, Azulai Rises to Second
The Shas party has submitted its proposed Knesset list for the upcoming elections to its rabbinical council for approval, following intensive discussions over the past 24 hours. The list, headed by party chairman Aryeh Deri, places Yנון Azulai in the second position, a significant jump from his previous standing. Michael Malchieli is slated for third place, with Yoav Ben-Tzur, Haim Biton, Dror Amos, Yoni Meshriki, Yossi Tayeb, Uriel Buso, Moshe Abutbul, and Erez Malul rounding out the top ten.
The notable advancement of Azulai and Malchieli to the second and third spots, respectively, signifies their strengthened positions within the party's leadership. Yoni Meshriki also saw an improvement in his ranking on the proposed list. However, it is emphasized that this list is still subject to the final decision of the rabbinical council and is not yet the definitive lineup.
This proposed arrangement reflects recent negotiations and shifts within Shas's upper echelons during the deliberation process. The final approval rests with the rabbinical courts.
