In the first stage: Eisenkot decided to try to form a government with the Haredim

Gadi Eisenkot decided to try to form a government with the Haredi parties in the first stage, despite gaps of trust. Meanwhile, he will summon Likud and Religious Zionism to meetings. The Change Bloc will begin by canceling laws from the judicial overhaul.

Gadi Eisenkot decided to try to form a government with the Haredi parties in the first stage, as reported on 'Ulpan Shishi'. The contacts are taking place through unofficial channels, but there are significant trust gaps between the sides. The Change Bloc fears that the Haredim will back out at the last moment and return to Netanyahu, while the Haredim fear they will be 'locked in' a government that does not uphold agreements. Meanwhile, Eisenkot intends to summon Likud and Religious Zionism to meetings, but little hope is placed in this avenue. Eisenkot stated that he approached all factions to form an emergency government under his leadership. The Change Bloc will begin by canceling laws from the judicial overhaul, with the first two targets being weakening the role of the Attorney General and changing the composition of the Judicial Selection Committee. The security meeting between Eisenkot and Netanyahu on Thursday did not bring the sides closer.
