The Israeli coalition government on Monday announced the dissolution of the Knesset or the Israeli parliament and the calling of early elections.

The current Deputy Prime Minister, Yair Lapidwho will be the acting Prime Minister after dissolution, will appear next to the outgoing Prime Minister, Naphtali Bennettat 8 p.m. (7 p.m. in the Basque Country).

The government will introduce a bill next week to dissolve the parliament, which would mean the end of the 36th government of the State of Israel.

Taking into account the legal conditions and public holidays in the country, the elections will most likely take place at the end of October.

According to the Israeli press, Lapid, the current foreign minister, will assume temporary leadership of the executive branch until a new government is formed after the snap elections.

The coalition government celebrated its first anniversary on June 13, chaining one crisis after another, especially since April when lost its parliamentary majority after the defection of Idit Silmana MP from Yamina, Bennett’s far-right party.

The Arab-Islamic Raam party also suspended its participation in the government for three weeks at the end of April after the violent disturbances in the Esplanade of the Mosques of Jerusalem during Ramadan, but then decided to rejoin an executive that has been on a tightrope for more than two months.

The coalition government is sworn in a year as the most diverse executive in the country’s history, an amalgamation of eight political parties of all walks of life – from the ultra-nationalist right to the pacifist left, through the unprecedented incorporation of an Arab party – that came together to overthrow Netanyahu, after 12 consecutive years in power.
