Theoretically, the change bloc could form a government with religious or Arab parties, but this presents significant challenges. Key figures are urged to make these crucial decisions.

- Netanyahu's bloc needs the "change bloc" to form a coalition government.
- The "change bloc" has fewer mandates but could theoretically form a government.
- Forming a coalition with religious or Arab parties is complex and problematic.
- Key figures in the change bloc must decide on unity and their main goal.
Despite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc holding more mandates, it cannot form a coalition without the "change bloc" parties. The change bloc, though smaller in mandates, theoretically could form a government with ultra-Orthodox or Arab parties, or a combination of both, a complex and problematic scenario.
Key figures within the change bloc, including Gadi Eisenkot, Naftali Bennett, Avigdor Lieberman, and Yair Golan, face a critical decision: whether to act as a unified bloc and what their primary objective is. Their choice will determine the potential for forming a new coalition government.
