Shake-up in the Blue and White Party: Member of Knesset Eitan Ginzburg announced his resignation

The Israeli political system marks another change this morning (Thursday, May 5, 2026) in the composition of the "Blue and White" party, with the announcement by Member of Knesset Eitan Ginzburg of his resignation from the faction. Reports of the move began to be published at midday.

According to a report by ynet news, Member of Knesset Eitan Ginzburg, who also serves as the party's secretary-general, officially announced his departure from the ranks of "Blue and White". The news was simultaneously confirmed by 12 Pinat 99 - Yanir Cozin and Yaron Avraham and by Political Updates, which reported briefly on the resignation.

News Arena placed the move in a broader context, noting that Ginzburg's resignation comes "after Kahana, Farkash, and Tropper" – a series of other central figures who have left the party in recent times. This departure joins questions surrounding the future and composition of the party in the current session.
