Yamina said to bolt nascent coalition

Ynet reports that the Yamina party is splitting off from the right-wing religious bloc that has backed Netanyahu since September, angry over apparent concessions to Blue and White on coalition talks.

“Netanyahu sold out the right to save himself, but he’ll quickly discover that his new partners holding the Justice Ministry will throw him out on the street very quickly. When Blue and White boots him from Balfour, we won’t be there,” a party source is quoted saying.

Even without Yamina’s six seats, Netanyahu could easily build a coalition with Blue and White’s support.
