A former ally of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ceased contact with opposition leaders while Netanyahu pursues a "national unity" government coalition, Middle East Eye reported. The ex-ally's withdrawal from opposition engagement comes as Netanyahu attempts to form a broader governing coalition.
The move signals fracturing within anti-Netanyahu political circles as coalition negotiations advance. Details of the former ally's identity and the specific opposition outreach being rejected were not disclosed.
