Benjamin Netanyahu Tells Lawmakers to Oppose 'Dangerous Leftist Government' as He Faces Removal [View all]
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wrote on Twitter Thursday that his lawmaker allies need to "oppose this dangerous leftist government," as he faces potential replacement in office with a new coalition government.
Opponents of Netanyahu asked parliament on Thursday for a speedy vote to officially remove him from office. Just hours before, Yair Lapid and coalition partner Naftali Bennett announced they had finalized a deal that would allow them to gain a majority in parliament and build the new government.
The coalition is an alliance of eight parties that vary on the political spectrum but share a common objective of ending Netanyahu's 12-year tenure. Some coalition advocates are former allies of Netanyahu, while others fall into groupings such as center-left parties and a previously unseen Arab faction in Israel.
Israel is attempting to recover after a couple tumultuous years in which the country saw four inconclusive elections, an economic crisis caused by COVID-19, and the recent Israel-Gaza conflict that heightened mob violence.
