TL;DR

Likud party leaders fear they may lack a majority to approve MK Tally Gotliv's parliamentary immunity request, and are preparing for a tense floor vote in the Knesset plenum, according to Bini Ashkenazi. Party whips have informed coalition lawmakers that no vote-trading or absentee deals will be permitted.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Likud coalition managers are concerned that the vote on MK Tally Gotliv's parliamentary immunity request, expected in the Knesset plenum, will not secure a majority, according to journalist Bini Ashkenazi. Party whips have informed coalition lawmakers that no vote-swapping or absentee deals will be permitted, signaling a high-stakes effort to lock in support. The immunity request stems from Gotliv's legal proceedings; she has criticized Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara and the State Attorney's Office over the case. As The Zioneer has reported, opposition MKs have demanded a secret ballot on the matter, and earlier committee debates ended without a decision. The vote is now expected to proceed under tight coalition discipline.
