Israel Govt collapses, the fifth election in three years !

Jerusalem – The coalition Government led by Prime Minister Naftali Bennet has collapsed, leading to a grave political situation. This will require holding the fifth general elections in just three years. The elections are likely to be held in October 2022. Foreign Minister Yair Lapid will take over from Prime Minister Naftali Bennet in the coming days. The former Prime Minister and the present Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu is also trying to come back to power. As per the contract between Bennet and Lapid, the Government was established by deposing Netanyahu.

Netanyahu was constantly trying to break away the MPs from the coalition Government. One of the ruling coalition parties with Arab members was not happy with this Government and had accused the Government of rehabilitating Jews in the Palestinian region.
