In a post on Instagram, Bohbot shared a photo of him, his wife, and the newborn baby in the hospital. Alongside the photo, he included a passage from the book of Psalms, thanking God.

The bloc breakdown based on the results shows the coalition bloc with 50 seats, the opposition with 59 seats, and Arab parties with 11 seats.

Some fear that objects crossing above the border fence can mark the beginning of a visible escalation. Incendiary balloons or rockets could follow the kites.

To the attention of all my colleagues in the opposition: Only a firm decision by all of us to adhere to these principles and maintain a bloc-wide strategy will bring us a clear and decisive victory.

Gadi Eisenkot called the Likud slate the "October 7 list," while Yair Lapid said the party "needs a break from power" and Avigdor Liberman accused it of becoming "haredi-lite."

The Radaa Force, Abu Shabab’s Popular Forces, and Hussam al-Astal’s Counter-Terrorism Strike Force are worth keeping an eye on as possible allies

Liberman further noted an incident in which the IDF ignored a group of terrorists who were conducting an exercise in which they practiced raiding a Jewish settlement, a claim the military denied.

Illouz will be replaced in the Knesset by the next person on Likud's list, Shabtai Katash, a haredi (ultra-Orthodox) member of Lod's Religious Council.

Movers and shakers in Israeli society.
