Liberman reveals plan to oust Netanyahu: "That's the end of the story"

Yisrael Beiteinu chairman Avigdor Liberman revealed a plan to oust Prime Minister Netanyahu, including replacing Knesset Speaker Ohana and advancing the "Indicted Law" immediately upon the swearing-in of the Knesset. The article notes that the move itself does not bring about the end of his term.

Yisrael Beiteinu chairman Avigdor Liberman revealed a plan to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, including the immediate replacement of Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana upon the swearing-in of the 26th Knesset and advancing the "Indicted Law" in three readings. Liberman wrote on his X account: "We must get rid of Bibi... and that's the end of the story." In the next stage, parties will work to secure cooperation from Ra'am and the Joint List through advancing laws and budget transfers, while simultaneously possibly advancing legislation to establish a state commission of inquiry into the events of October 7 and setting limits on the term of a prime minister against whom an indictment has been filed. However, the article notes that replacing the Knesset Speaker or passing the law does not in itself end the term of the sitting prime minister, as Basic Law: The Government stipulates that the outgoing government continues in its role until a new government is formed.
