Israel's Knesset Faces Dissolution Amid Political Tensions and Military Service Debates
TL;DR Summary
Israel's Knesset is set to vote on dissolving itself amid a political deadlock over military conscription exemptions for ultra-Orthodox parties, potentially leading to early elections that polls suggest Netanyahu would lose. The process could be delayed as coalition negotiations continue, with the final vote requiring a majority and possibly taking months. The crisis is compounded by ongoing Gaza conflict and public dissatisfaction with the government.
