Sources from Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit are declining to comment on reported legislative negotiations between Prime Minister Netanyahu and Haredi parties, according to a Hebrew political channel. The parties reportedly prefer to stay clear of the issue.
Political sources from the Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit parties are not responding to reports of a coalition deal between Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Haredi factions, according to a Hebrew political the source. The sources, quoted Tuesday evening, are described as preferring to keep their distance from the issue and exercising their right to remain silent. The development follows a joint statement by Shas and Degel HaTorah earlier Tuesday, as reported by The Zioneer, denying any deal with Netanyahu and reiterating their legislative demands for a Basic Law: Torah Study and protections for yeshiva students. That statement did not address the stance of Religious Zionism or Otzma Yehudit. No official response has been issued by either party as of Tuesday evening.
