After three years of war, representatives of the front line remain outside the Knesset

After three years of war, representatives from the northern front line will not serve in the 26th Knesset. Candidates from the right and left, including David Azoulay, Netali Shem Tov, Nisan Zeevi, and Shai Fisher, were placed in unrealistic slots or their parties did not pass the electoral threshold. Even outgoing MK Sasson Gueta (Likud) was pushed to the 49th spot. Tzachi Eliyahu (Otzma Yehudit, 8th place) is the closest to entering the Knesset, with 7 seats currently.

After three years of war, prolonged evacuation, and severe damage to the economy and community, the hope of bringing representatives from the northern front-line communities into the 26th Knesset has been dashed. Candidates from the right and left, including Metula council head David Azoulay (13th place on Yisrael Beiteinu), Netali Shem Tov (3rd place on Amcha Yisrael), Nisan Zeevi (15th place on BeYachad), Shai Fisher (24th place on Yashar!), and Moshe Davidovich (40th place on Yashar!), were placed in unrealistic slots or their parties did not pass the electoral threshold. Outgoing MK Sasson Gueta (Likud) was also pushed to the 49th spot. The article notes that Tzachi Eliyahu (Otzma Yehudit, 8th place) is the closest to entering the Knesset, with 7 seats currently.
