Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on Saturday evening, November 7, for the formation of a national unity government. He stated, "I call to create a national unity government, which will include all parties of the national camp and all Zionist parties that wish to preserve our state, the only state of the Jewish people." Netanyahu expressed concern about potential moves to swear in a government next week that would include "supporters of terror" and those who "seek to destroy the State of Israel" and "create a Palestinian state on its ruins." This marks the first time since the results of the 26th Knesset elections were published that Netanyahu has used the word "unity," previously opting for "broad national government." The inclusion of "all parties of the national camp" is understood to encompass the Otzma Yehudit party.
