Israel’s new parliament is scheduled to be sworn in on Tuesday, November 10. This event comes as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is poised to lose his legislative majority while his rival, Gadi Eisenkot, works towards establishing a new government.
The incoming opposition is anticipated to leverage its legislative authority to address pressing matters, notably the formation of a commission tasked with investigating security failures that preceded the October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas. This inquiry reflects the growing demand for accountability regarding the incidents leading up to the violence.
