Celebrations at Zionist Union

“This is a victory and means that the situation will improve and we [Zionist Union] will be able to form a government,” Oren Pasternak, a field activist from Zionist Union, told MEE.

“According to the polls, the Israeli public does not want Netanyahu as a prime minister. We started the campaign with 12 seats in the polls so for us this is a big success. We remain optimistic and have a lot of energy for the rest of the evening.”
