Far-right party leader Naftali Bennett threw his crucial support on Sunday behind a "government of change" in Israel to unseat Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in what would be the end of a political era.
Bennett's decision, which he announced in a televised address, could enable opposition chief Yair Lapid to put together a coalition of right-wing, centrist and leftist parties and hand Netanyahu his first election defeat since 1999.
Lapid, head of the centrist Yesh Atid party that finished second to Netanyahu's right-wing Likud in an inconclusive March 23 national ballot, faces a Wednesday deadline from Israel's president to announce a new government.
Lapid's chances of success have rested largely with Bennett, a former defence chief whose Yamina party's six seats in the 120-member parliament are enough to give him the status of kingmaker....afp

Le chef de la formation de droite radicale israélienne Yamina, Naftali Bennett, a annoncé dimanche son intention de rejoindre le camp du chef de l'opposition Yaïr Lapid qui tente de former un "gouvernement d'union nationale" pour mettre fin au règne de Benjamin Netanyahu, le plus long de l'histoire de l'Etat d'Israël. Une décision qui serait un "danger pour la sécurité" de l'État pour le Premier ministre israélien.
