Shock Defeat For Netanyahu In Israeli Polls As Trump Blasts Bibi? Israeli Voters Spell Shock Verdict

Is Benjamin Netanyahu staring at an election rout this year amid the U.S.-Iran deal and continued fighting in Lebanon? A new opinion poll has raised fresh questions about Netanyahu's political future, claiming that the opposition would be able to form a government if elections were held today. According to a survey conducted by the Lazar Research Institute in cooperation with the Israeli daily Maariv, opposition parties would secure 61 seats in the 120-member Knesset, while Netanyahu's ruling bloc would win just 49 seats. The poll also showed continued gains for the opposition Yashar party led by former Israel Defense Forces chief Gadi Eisenkot, which climbed to 21 seats and tied Netanyahu's Likud party. The findings come amid growing domestic criticism of Netanyahu's leadership, ongoing anti-government protests, and concerns over Israel's military operations in Gaza and Lebanon. #BenjaminNetanyahu #Israel #IsraeliPolitics #GadiEisenkot #Likud #MiddleEast #NaftaliBennett #yairlapid #GadiEisenkot #IsraelElections Times Of India (TOI) Is The Largest Selling English Daily In The World.
