A surprising meeting took place yesterday between MK Avi Maoz, chairman of the Noam party, and Rabbi Shaul Alter, leader of the "Pnei Menachem" community. The meeting occurred against the backdrop of political developments and preparations for the upcoming elections.
During the encounter, Rabbi Alter expressed his high regard for Maoz's political activities. He referenced Maoz's given name, Avigdor, drawing a parallel to Moses, who was also called Avigdor and was credited with "mending the breaches of Israel." Rabbi Alter concluded by wishing Maoz success in all his endeavors, stating, "I bless you that you will succeed in all your actions and that there will be great success with God's help."

Mazuz, and several Chabad rabbis. The Noam party is currently engaged in discussions with additional communities to garner support, reporting significant popularity within the Haredi sector.
