Israel: Netanyahu's sixth government — the furthest-right coalition in Israeli history

After his fifth electoral run in under four years, Benjamin Netanyahu returned to the prime minister's office at the head of a coalition that for the first time placed Itamar Ben-Gvir (national security) and Bezalel Smotrich (finance, plus settlement authority over the West Bank) in senior cabinet roles. The coalition's first major project — judicial overhaul — ignited the largest sustained protest movement in Israeli history, paused only by the 7 October 2023 attack.
