Prof. Yaron Zalicha, chairman of the Economic Party, opened a front against Yair Lapid in an interview with 103FM, claiming that "there is no difference between him and Netanyahu." Zalicha spoke about the connection with Yoaz Hendel and revealed that in internal polls the list already stands at five seats, with its voters coming almost equally from both political blocs. According to him, most voters are aged 45 and under, reservists, and young people struggling to buy an apartment. Zalicha presented the party's demands: the position of Finance Minister to reduce the cost of living, and a full conscription law for all Jews except Torah geniuses, while clarifying that Israeli Arabs will perform national service. He attacked Lapid for not implementing measures to reduce the cost of living, and accused the government of giving away gas for free and buying it back at double the market price. Zalicha emphasized that the party is not in anyone's pocket, not Netanyahu's nor Eisenkot's, and that it aspires to a broad Zionist government.
