Moti Leitner, chairman of the Haredi Electorate party, has ceased all communication with individuals attempting to persuade him to withdraw from the Knesset election race. According to Maariv correspondent Anna Barsky, Leitner publicly declared his intention to remain in the race until the end on Wednesday evening. Following this statement, party representatives conveyed a firm message to all parties involved in behind-the-scenes negotiations, stating there would be no withdrawal and no further discussions. Leitner has since turned off his mobile phone, ignoring calls and messages, effectively ending attempts to exert political pressure on him.
