Religious Zionism leader Bezalel Smotrich urges MK Itamar Ben Gvir not to break off from the far-right alliance and run alone in the upcoming Knesset elections.

“We still have another month until the closing of the [electoral] lists. Let’s return to the negotiating room — we’ll talk about everything… we’ll reach an agreement on how best to run together to maximize our strength and bring a win to the national camp,” Smotrich says in a video statement.
