Political upheaval: Moshe Arbel resigns from the Knesset

The political system is in an uproar following the announcement by Minister Moshe Arbel of his resignation from the Knesset. According to reports on Israel News Channel | No Censorship, Arbel clarified that he will not run on any other list. In his resignation letter, Arbel called upon the Knesset: "To be privileged to remove the causes of division, to clear away the partitions that separate, and to banish baseless hatred from among us" (Source).

At the same time, relations within the coalition face a significant test. According to Amit Segal, the Haredi factions are determined to bring the dissolution of the Knesset to a preliminary reading, even if the fighting resumes, as also reported by the News in Real Time channel on Telegram. The issue is expected to be at the center of an urgent discussion in the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, against the backdrop of the deep dispute over the Draft Law.

On the international and security level, additional reports were recorded: on the Israel News | No Censorship channel, it was noted that the goal of the renewed operation in Iran is "acceleration." Simultaneously, investigative authorities in Italy determined that the car-ramming attack that occurred yesterday was not defined as a terrorist event, but rather as an act committed by a driver who suffered from mental health issues (Source).
