"Dutch Far-right Leader Wilders Faces Coalition Challenge for Premiership"

Geert Wilders, the leader of the Party for Freedom, announced that he does not have the support of his likely coalition partners to become the next Dutch prime minister. This comes after a breakthrough in coalition talks, setting up the likelihood of a technical Cabinet made up of experts. Wilders, known for his anti-Islam stance, has stepped aside in the interests of pushing through his agenda, and the exact contours of a new coalition Cabinet remain unclear. The rise of the populist far right in Europe is evident, with far-right parties expected to make significant gains in upcoming elections.

"Netherlands in Turmoil: Wilders' Coalition Negotiator Resigns Amid Far-Right Shift Fears"

Geert Wilders, leader of the conservative Dutch PVV party, appointed Gom van Strien as a 'scout' to hold talks with party leaders for potential coalition negotiations. However, van Strien resigned on his first day following allegations of fraud. Wilders has a replacement in mind and hopes to announce a new 'scout' soon. Forming a government may be challenging for Wilders, as he needs the support of other parties, including the VVD, which has ruled out serving in a Wilders-led Cabinet but may consider lending outside support.

"Netherlands Election: A Historic Turning Point with Wide Open Possibilities"

The Dutch election is wide open as polling stations open, with four rival party leaders having a chance to win power. The far-right party of Geert Wilders, known for its anti-Islam and anti-EU stance, has experienced a sudden surge in support, putting it on par with the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD). The Labour-Green alliance and a new centrist party are trailing behind. However, 63% of voters had not yet decided on their final choice one day before the election. Wilders' return to power would be significant, as mainstream parties have previously refused to work with him.

15th week of ongoing judicial reform protests.

The 15th week of judicial reform protests in Israel began on Saturday evening in Tel Aviv despite the government's announcement that legislation won't begin again until after May. Protestors gathered at Habima Square ahead of a planned march toward Kaplan where various activists were set to speak after Shabbat. The protests have continued the last few weeks despite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announcing a freeze of the legislation and the beginning of negotiations at President Isaac Herzog's residence in Jerusalem.
