Israel’s parliament on Monday failed to muster the supermajority needed to remove Arab opposition lawmaker Ayman Odeh, after only 73 of the Knesset’s 120 members backed the motion—well short of the 90 votes required to revoke a member’s mandate. The bid was led by right-wing coalition parties angered by Odeh’s public criticism of the war in Gaza. Odeh, who heads the Hadash–Ta’al alliance, called the effort an assault on democratic dissent. The vote laid bare deepening cracks in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing bloc. Degel HaTorah, a faction of the ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party, boycotted the ballot and said its two lawmakers would leave the coalition unless the government safeguards draft exemptions for yeshiva students. Agudat Yisrael, another UTJ faction, has also declared its withdrawal. If both factions follow through, the coalition would hold just 61 seats—only one more than the opposition—threatening Netanyahu’s ability to advance contentious measures such as his proposed judicial overhaul.
