TL;DR

01 · THE DISPATCH

A new Channel 13 survey broadcast Wednesday evening gauges the latest shifts in Israeli public opinion. According to the poll, Naftali Bennett's party is recovering after weeks of decline tracked by multiple surveys this month, while Gadi Eisenkot continues to extend his lead over Prime Minister Netanyahu in the personal suitability question. The pro-Netanyahu bloc dropped by two seats compared to the previous Channel 13 poll, though the exact breakdown of party sizes was not specified in the initial report. The survey was conducted and broadcast by Channel 13, one of Israel's three main television networks. Earlier this month, polls across multiple channels — including Channel 12/N12, Channel 13, Channel 14, and Kan 11 — consistently showed Bennett in steep decline and Eisenkot surging. The new poll suggests a potential stabilization or slight recovery for Bennett, though the full seat counts and margin of error have not yet been published.
