Exactly one week before the elections for the 26th Knesset, the major parties are stepping up their campaigns. Likud, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, is focusing efforts in malls and shopping centers, emphasizing the messages 'It's Right or Palestine' and 'We will not surrender'. Netanyahu is also giving interviews in media not identified with him. Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar party is storming Likud strongholds and the periphery, focusing on about 40 target cities, and trying to attract a liberal, serving, and young audience. Naftali Bennett, chairman of the Together party, is conducting tours, parliaments, and collaborations with social media influencers, with an emphasis on a young audience and soldiers. Yisrael Beiteinu is going into the field with home circles and conferences, emphasizing the message '100% for those who serve, 0 for those who dodge'. The Democrats are planning a memorial ceremony for Yitzhak Rabin, a 'March of Democracy' and a rally, while recruiting 10,000 volunteers for election day. United Torah Judaism is holding home circles and dealing with extremist factions, while Shas focuses on preserving Judaism and tradition, and Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef warns against voting for those who ascend the Temple Mount. Religious Zionism is conducting tours between yeshivas.
