Center-Left Owned by Kasturi & Sons Ltd.New Israeli parliament to take aim at Netanyahu as Eisenkot seeks government
What's behind this
At the swearing‑in of Israel’s new 120‑member Knesset, former army chief Gadi Eisenkot vowed to reverse Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policies, introducing a series of bills that target the caretaker leader’s legacy. Eisenkot’s broad left‑to‑right bloc, supported by Israeli‑Arab parties, will control the agenda from the outset, though neither side holds a majority. He publicly called Netanyahu ‘unfit to remain in office’ and launched a legislative onslaught against the prime minister’s record. The parliament convened after Netanyahu fell short of a majority, leaving uncertainty over who can form a government.
