UTJ to sign coalition deal with Likud
Ultra-Orthodox party United Torah Judaism is set to sign a coalition deal with the Likud party this evening.
The six-seat party will be the first to sign a deal to join a government headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Likud MK Ze’ev Elkin tells Channel 2 that he’s hopeful that the Kulanu party headed by Moshe Kahlon will also ink a coalition deal with Likud this evening.
Netanyahu received a two-week extension from President Reuven Rivlin last week to build a governing coalition after his one-month deadline expired.
