Former Israeli Ambassador Gilad Erdan Invites Ex-Beauty Queen Titi Aynaw to Join New Political Party

With the Israeli Knesset elections for the 26th session approaching in about three months, candidates are actively forming party lists and building political movements. Among them is Gilad Erdan, former Israeli ambassador to the United States and current minister, who is considering launching a new political party. Erdan recently approached Titi Aynaw, a former beauty queen, inviting her to join his new political venture. Aynaw is reportedly being courted by multiple political figures, including notable names like Ayelet Shaked and Yuli Edelstein, as potential candidates for various party lists.

Titi Aynaw is no stranger to the corridors of the Knesset, having been actively involved in advocacy efforts over the past two years. She has notably supported the family of Haimnot Kasao, a missing girl who disappeared from a reception center in Safed on February 25, 2024, keeping public attention on this sensitive issue. While Erdan is one of several politicians seeking her participation, it remains to be seen whether Aynaw will enter the political arena in the upcoming elections.
