The Reservists-Economic Party, led by Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha, has a slim chance of entering the Knesset, needing approximately 57,500 more votes to cross the electoral threshold. Their potential success hinges on military and other double-envelope ballots, where they may find stronger support than in the general vote. Hendel remains hopeful, awaiting final results from IDF polling stations.
