Einat Wilf Joins Yoaz Hendel's Party Amidst Political Mergers
Former Labor MK and current "Oz" party chairwoman Dr. Einat Wilf announced on Sunday her union with Yoaz Hendel's "Reservists" party. This move follows Hendel's recent declaration of a merger with Professor Yaron Zelekha and the Economic Party.
Wilf, a researcher and author, previously served as a Member of Knesset for the Labor party. In recent years, she has been prominent for her advocacy on Israeli public diplomacy abroad and her stances on security, Zionism, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The merger between Hendel, Zelekha, and Wilf is the latest in a series of political alliances formed ahead of the deadline for submitting party lists for the Knesset elections. A poll published by "Kan News" suggests that this bloc could significantly shift the political landscape, potentially tipping the scales to favor Prime Minister Netanyahu's bloc.
The combined list, named "Reservists-Economic," includes Yoaz Hendel as the first candidate, followed by Yaron Zelekha, Einat Wilf, and other figures such as Habib Walibovich and Yoav Adomi.
