Eisenkot's Election Plan Targets Right-Wing Voters, Aims to Lead Bloc

Gadi Eisenkot's "Yashar!" party is implementing a strategy to attract right-wing voters in 40 key cities ahead of the upcoming Knesset elections. The campaign aims to make "Yashar!" the largest party, potentially enabling Eisenkot to be tasked with forming the government, even if the "change bloc" falls short of a majority. The party is also targeting undecided voters, the Druze community, and former Soviet Union immigrants. This move could impact smaller parties on the right and influence the overall election outcome.

Teenager Killed, Dozens Wounded by Unexploded Ordnance on Israeli School Trip

A 13-year-old student was killed and 24 others injured by an unexploded cluster munition during a school hike in northern Israel on Monday. The ordnance, likely from Hezbollah, exploded when a student picked it up. Despite warnings and divided responsibilities for clearance among government bodies, the threat of unexploded ordnance persists across Israel, a legacy of past wars. Investigations are ongoing into the incident, which occurred on an approved but potentially restricted trail.
