Journalist Yonatan Weiss criticized the head of a newly formed Haredi faction, warning that entering the upcoming elections would split the vote and harm the broader Haredi bloc. 'There are already enough small parties,' he said, according to his social media post.
Yonatan Weiss, a journalist and commentator, issued a warning to the newly formed Haredi faction, arguing that its entry into the next Knesset elections would dilute the votes of the existing Haredi parties and reduce their overall representation. 'This is a danger,' he wrote. 'If you run in the upcoming elections, you will burn votes. There are already enough small parties.' The remarks come amid reports of a split within the Haredi political camp, with a new faction seeking to challenge the established parties. The Zioneer previously reported on a growing threat to Haredi parties that could put tens of thousands of votes at risk, though the specific nature of the threat was not elaborated at the time.
