Eisenkot consolidates power as opposition gains over Netanyahu

The results of a poll conducted by the Israeli Channel "Kan" show that opposition parties expect to win 57 seats in the 2026 elections, compared to 52 seats for the ruling coalition parties. The Likud and Yesh Atid parties maintained their leading positions, each projected to secure 23 seats. Meanwhile, the joint Ben-Gvir and Lapid party increased to 14 seats. Three parties are tied at 10 seats each, with Otzma Yehudit rising by two seats. The survey anticipates that Arab parties will collectively hold 11 seats, while parties such as the Zionist House, Yemenite, and Blue and White did not surpass the electoral threshold to enter the Knesset. Although the opposition is ahead of the coalition, they will need the support of Arab parties to form a parliamentary majority, which is expected to secure 11 seats.
