National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir's faction announced it will recommend Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to President Herzog to form the next government. The decision aligns Otzma Yehudit with Shas and Religious Zionism ahead of consultations opening Wednesday.


Otzma Yehudit announced today that it will recommend Benjamin Netanyahu to the president as the candidate to form Israel’s next government. The announcement joins decisions by Religious Zionism and Shas to back Netanyahu ahead of the consultation round at the President’s Residence.

So far, the right-wing parties Shas, Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit have recommended Netanyahu, with only the United Judaism party still not announcing who it will support for the next prime minister of Israel
