The new Israeli coalition government will face persistent attempts by Netanyahu and his supporters to undermine it.

By letting violence escalate, the outgoing prime minister is sabotaging the formation of a cabinet by the opposition.

Israel’s democratic system continues to erode as Netanyahu does everything and anything to avoid prison.

On the eve of its fourth election in two years, Israel is still not talking about the issues that really matter.

There is a growing perception that the Israeli ultra-Orthodox Jewish community is not abiding by anti-pandemic measures.

Netanyahu’s downfall might mark the rise of another Israeli leader, even more right-wing than him.

While seeking normalisation of relations abroad, the Israeli PM is sowing ethnic tensions at home.

The mishandling of the pandemic fallout and his bid for early elections could bring down the Israeli prime minister.

The Israeli prime minister has broken with the Israeli right-wing policy of creeping annexation. Why the shift?

Israel’s new national emergency government was established not to defeat COVID-19, but to keep Netanyahu out of prison.
