Yoaz Hendel and Hili Trooper Join Forces for Joint Run in Upcoming Elections

Yoaz Hendel, leader of the Reservists Party, and Member of Knesset Hili Trooper have agreed to run together in the upcoming elections, forming a new unified Zionist political force. The announcement, made on July 7, 2026, aims to establish a broad Zionist government and marks the first step toward creating a significant new political power. Hendel emphasized the partnership as a response to Israel's current challenges, highlighting the need for a new generation of leadership that listens, unites, and works professionally for the public good, especially representing those who serve in the military and volunteer sectors.

In a message to his party activists, Hendel praised Trooper as embodying the best qualities of the Israeli people and expressed his commitment to focusing on their shared national mission after completing his reserve service. He called for less ego and old politics and more cooperation and dedication to the country’s future.

The move received immediate support from Gadi Eizenkot, chairman of the Yisrael Party, who congratulated Trooper and described him as a unifying and experienced leader essential for Israel’s recovery and for forming a Zionist government that will unite the nation and restore the country’s proper path. This alliance signals a strategic effort to strengthen the political representation of Israel’s reservists and those who bear the national burden.
