Members of the "Brothers in Arms" movement enlist for the elections

The "Brothers in Arms" movement is setting up volunteer networks to safeguard election integrity, while the Change Bloc has yet to decide on a single candidate for prime minister. Activists are focusing efforts on deploying thousands of volunteers at polling stations and combating fake news on social networks, without a decision on an agreed candidate that could cost the bloc votes.

The protest movement "Brothers in Arms" is mobilizing its activists ahead of the elections for the 26th Knesset, establishing two bodies: "It's Time" and "Elections Command Center." The activists, led by Eyal Naveh, are focusing on deploying tens of thousands of volunteers at polling stations to safeguard election integrity, monitoring fake news and hate speech on social networks, and filing lawsuits. This comes against the backdrop of an internal struggle within the Change Bloc, where three of its four leaders—Gadi Eisenkot, Yair Golan, and Bennett—are still vying for the premiership, while Benjamin Netanyahu enjoys a unified camp. The article notes that the lack of a decision on a single candidate could cost the bloc votes from voters seeking certainty, and that the right-wing bloc is closing the gap in polls. The author calls on the Change Bloc to set a date after which the candidate with the largest number of mandates in the polls will lead, and to agree in advance on a narrow Zionist transitional government.
