Ousted Israeli officials to form new party

Ousted Israeli minister of military affairs, Moshe Yaalon is said to be aiming to establish a new party of those officials ousted by the prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to Arab48 website.

The website also quoted a poll in Israel as saying that the forthcoming coalition party would be the largest in the Israeli parliament, beating Netanyahu’s coalition party.

The poll published by the Israel radio says Gidon Saar and Moshe Kahalon would join the new party, adding the party would have at least 25 seats in the parliament, actually putting an end to the ruling of Netanyahu’s Likud party.

Netanyahu’s party would lose 9 seats to the new party, only having 21 seats, according to the poll.
