Ahead of Israel's next election, political jockeying is intensifying. Likud MK Tally Gotliv, placed 20th on her party's slate, said she is open to a 'serious offer' from another party after feeling sidelined by Netanyahu, though she has not yet received one. In an unprecedented move, Arab and Jewish parties have discussed forming a joint list. On the right, Religious Zionism leader Bezalel Smotrich and Moshe Feiglin announced a joint election run, urging other right-wing parties to join their alliance. Smotrich warned that the achievements of the current government are at stake in the election, while newcomer Ofer Winter said 'the people of Israel want something new,' underscoring the fragmentation and realignment underway across Israel's political spectrum ahead of the vote.
