JERUSALEM, Israel – Israelis are again facing uncertainty when it comes to their government. After Tuesday’s announcement of the ruling coalition’s collapse, the country faces two scenarios: either October elections or a new government within days.
The Knesset, Israel’s parliament, is scheduled to vote Monday to dissolve the government and pursue elections in October. As former Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon told CBN News, however, that may not be the only outcome.
“I would advise of our audience to be patient till next Monday. Because I have seen a lot of things happen in Israeli politics and I recall when I was in the Knesset, we already voted to [dissolve] the government, and then, the next day we were able to form a new government. So it’s not over yet," said Danon.
