Quick Glance: Netanyahu draws closer to assembling a far-right cabinet in Israel
- (JERUSALEM) – Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's projected prime minister, sealed a coalition agreement with an ultra-Orthodox party on Thursday, putting him one step closer to forming what is anticipated to be the most right-wing and religious administration in the country's history.
- The Shas party has long been an ally of Netanyahu's Likud party.
- The Shas party would dominate or hold important positions in the ministries of religious services, social affairs, education, and interior affairs under the newest agreement.
- In the November 1 elections, Likud and its ultra-Orthodox and far-right partners won a majority of Knesset seats, putting them in position to establish a new government.

Quick Glance: The Israeli government dissolves, prompting new elections and boosting the prospect of Benjamin Netanyahu returning to power.
- Following weeks of anticipation, current Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett indicated that the cabinet would present a measure to dissolve the Knesset next week, effectively ending Israel's 36th administration if it passed.
- Mr Bennett's coalition colleague, current Foreign Minister Yair Lapid, will act as acting prime minister for at least 90 days.
- He has spent much of his time in opposition aggressively undermining the coalition government and persuading opposition parties to vote against government initiatives, culminating in the earlier this month defeat of a bill restoring certain rights to Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
