baba News: Israeli & Hebrew news, translated to English

Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar! party is leading an opposition effort to replace Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana to gain control of the parliamentary agenda before a new government is formed. Likud is attempting to prevent this by challenging the legitimacy of votes involving Arab parties and seeking to dissuade lawmakers from defecting. Eisenkot is also working to form a coalition with ultra-Orthodox parties, facing challenges from Avigdor Liberman. The opposition aims to pass key legislation, including repealing judicial overhaul laws and introducing mandatory national service, while Likud is campaigning against the opposition's strategy.
