Shafaq News/ On Monday, ReligiousZionist Party leader Bezalel Smotrich resigned from his roles as Israel’sfinance minister and a minister within the Defence Ministry.
A spokesperson for Smotrichattributed the resignation to the demand from Otzma Yehudit leader ItamarBen-Gvir for additional ministerial positions upon his return to thegovernment.
The spokesperson also highlighted a"breach of agreements" between Smotrich’s party, Ben-Gvir’s faction,and Prime Minister Netanyahu.
While the resignation is largelyprocedural, Smotrich intends to reclaim his ministerial posts once hisparliamentary status is restored.
This manoeuvre is enabled byIsrael’s "Norwegian Law," which allows ministers to temporarily stepdown from parliament to focus on their executive duties.
During this period, the nextcandidate on their party list takes their seat. If the minister later leavesthe Cabinet, they can return to the Knesset, and the substitute member stepsaside.
As a result, MK Yitzhak Kroizer ofOtzma Yehudit will vacate his Knesset seat, allowing Smotrich to return as alegislator.
Despite the shift, Netanyahu’scoalition remains intact. The government successfully passed Israel’s 2025budget in the Knesset last week, ensuring continued political stability fornow.
