Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana updated that the Knesset will dissolve on July 17, a Friday, with the final day for legislation effectively July 16 — leaving 14 legislative days for the current coalition, according to reporter Ari Kalman.
Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana announced that the Knesset will dissolve on July 17, a Friday, marking a concrete timeline for the end of the current coalition's legislative window. The last day for passing legislation is effectively July 16, leaving 14 remaining legislative days, as reported by journalist Ari Kalman. This solidifies the dissolution schedule after days of reports that the coalition would hold a dissolution vote this week.
As The Zioneer previously reported (June 22), an emerging dissolution deadline had been signaled but not yet finalized. Previous optimistic coalition assessments that the Knesset would not dissolve this week due to pending legislation (as reported by Channel 12) are now overtaken by the speaker's firm date.
Ohana's announcement, delivered in an update to the Knesset, does not specify the election date itself — that would be set by law once dissolution is final. The timeline effectively forces all outstanding coalition bills, including those demanded by Haredi parties, to pass within 14 legislative days or be abandoned.
