Survivors of the October 7 massacre and bereaved families called on the leader of the "Yashar" party, Gadi Eisenkot, today (Sunday) to reject any offer to form a unity government with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. This was reported by the Jerusalem Post and Reshet 13. Among the signatories to the appeal are residents of the Gaza border communities who survived the massacre and remain displaced from their homes three years later.

Simultaneously, Knesset members from the "Yashar" party spoke out against the possibility of forming a government with the participation of the Joint List, making it clear that for them, this is a red line. Further details regarding potential coalition contacts have not yet been released.
