Renegade Yamina MK Idit Silman reportedly says she does not plan to vote in favor of legislation renewing Israeli civil and criminal law for West Bank settlers.

According to the Israel Hayom newspaper, Silman informed the heads of the coalition that she won’t support the bill, which would leave it unlikely to pass in the 60-60 Knesset.

Silman reportedly says that she will not support the bill even at the price of being sanctioned and ousted from the party.
