In a major political development in Jerusalem, former prime ministers Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid have announced a joint alliance ahead of upcoming elections.

The two leaders—who previously shared power in a historic coalition—are now merging forces to challenge longtime Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Their new political bloc aims to unite Israel’s divided opposition and present a stronger alternative to Netanyahu’s leadership.

A key campaign focus is expected to be accountability for the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel, an issue that continues to shape public debate and political strategy.
