An Israeli poll has shown a decline in the popularity of the Likud Party led by Benjamin Netanyahu to its lowest levels since May 2025, with the party securing 19 seats in the Knesset. In contrast, the Yesh Atid party leads with 25 seats. The results come after the submission of candidate lists and indicate a continuous decline in Netanyahu's support amid opposition gains. These developments pose a risk of shifting the political balance in Israel ahead of the elections scheduled for October 27, 2026, especially amidst the possibility that no alternative government may be formed without the support of Arab parties. The survey also revealed that Naftali Bennett outperforms Netanyahu in the race for the prime ministership, and there is increasing pressure from corruption allegations against Netanyahu, who heads Israel’s most right-wing government in history.
