Religious Zionism leader Bezalel Smotrich calls on Otzma Yehudit chief Itamar Ben Gvir to hold talks on reuniting their far-right parties, after opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu urged them to do so.

“I agree with [Netanyahu] and call on my friend Itamar — let’s sit tomorrow with the real goal of advancing a joint run for the sake of a right-wing victory in the elections,” Smotrich tweets.
