Member of Knesset Michael Biton is leaving Benny Gantz's National Unity Party ahead of the upcoming elections, dealing another blow to Gantz's list. Biton is reportedly in advanced negotiations to form a new political entity focused on social issues and intergenerational connection, to be named "Dor V'Dor" (Generation and Generation).
He is said to be in talks with Dani Miran, a leader of the Pensioners Party, for a joint run in the 26th Knesset. Biton was considered a prominent social figure within Gantz's faction, making his departure significant at this critical juncture before the candidate lists are finalized.
This move occurs amidst other political developments, including reports of a significant lead for Gadi Eisenkot in his party's internal rankings and new challenges for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
