Knesset

Lapid said that the difference between him and Golan is comparable to the difference between him and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, “They are Left-wing, I am Center,” he said.

The proposed bill aims to establish the Early Childhood Authority, a new government body within the Education Ministry.

Critics have warned of the bill's democratic implications, including those involving women's rights, which may deepen the rift between the haredi and secular communities.

Diaspora Jews cannot stay silent as Israel debates executing terrorists, as the bill endangers not only Israel’s moral fabric but also Jewish safety worldwide.

Bennett's remarks come ahead of the upcoming elections and amid recent speculation regarding his stance on forming a government with Netanyahu.

Yesh Atid MK Mickey Levy warns Naftali Bennett’s poll surge is fueled by Lapid voters, not “natural” rising support in his ideology, and cautions a stronger Bennett could ultimately align with Likud.

Beliak (Yesh Atid) slammed Smotrich, saying, "You are so racist and disgusting. You should be ashamed. You are responsible, you are a minister in the government, you are responsible."

The absence of such a law places "every Israeli citizen, at home and abroad, under a real threat of abduction," argued Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.

Former Gaza hostage Or Levy also commented on government attempts to block the establishment of a state commission of inquiry into the October 7 massacre and related national security failures.

The statement, made during a Religious Zionist Party Knesset press conference, comes as the government fast-tracks a haredi conscription bill.
