Netanayhu said worried Likud MKs will vote against repeat elections

Netanyahu is reportedly working to ensure that all Likud MKs vote in favor of the bill to dissolve the Knesset and therefore prevent President Rivlin from tasking another MK with forming the coalition.

The prime minister is worried that a group of his own lawmakers may vote against the proposal, Kan news reports.

Netanyahu has called a meeting of all Likud MKs from 11 p.m., half an hour before the vote is set to take place.
