English · Sole source

Joint List faction chairman MK Ahmad Tibi revealed a two-stage plan to prevent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from continuing in office after the upcoming elections. The strategy involves supporting an alternative government from outside the coalition in exchange for commitments to Arab society's needs. Tibi also plans to oust Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana early in the next session. The proposal is based on polls indicating neither bloc will achieve a majority, potentially positioning Arab parties as kingmakers.
