CenterCharged tone
Israeli Democrats are advocating for a coalition with Arab parties, including Ra'am, to form a new government and replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu following exit poll results. Lawmakers Naama Lazimi and Yair Golan called for political courage and leadership to establish a government of change. While exit polls suggest Arab parties could win up to 18 seats, it is unclear if this will grant the anti-Netanyahu bloc the 61 seats needed for a majority in the 120-member Knesset.
