Right-wing demonstrators gathered outside the Knesset during the swearing-in ceremony for the 26th Knesset, chanting against forming a government with Arab-party support. Protesters chanted 'We want a Jewish state' and 'Don't establish a government with terrorists'. The Times of Israel reported that the protesters warned of civil war if such a government were formed. The demonstration came as the new Knesset opened without a clear majority for either bloc.
