Israel: before the Knesset, Gadi Eisenkot promises rapid legislative reforms even before the formation of the government

The inauguration of the new Knesset on November 10 was marked by confusion and tension, reflecting the recent Israeli electoral campaign. Benjamin Netanyahu faced criticism from his opponent Gadi Eisenkot for his racist remarks against Arab party leaders. Despite the heated exchanges, Eisenkot's opposition bloc is moving forward, having agreed on a candidate for Knesset presidency. Matan Kahana, a member of Eisenkot's party, is set to be elected on November 17, aiming to replace Netanyahu ally Amir Ohana.
