The former Minister of Energy, who has served as an MK since 2013, joins the long list of faction members who will not be in the next Knesset. Thus, 12 incumbent MKs from Yesh Atid will not be placed on the joint list with Bennett in the upcoming elections.

Ahead of presenting the joint list with Naftali Bennett, the Yesh Atid chairman is carrying out a deep reorganization within the party. While some MKs will keep their spots, a series of senior figures have resigned or were pushed back, while others wait for the final decision, expected by the end of the week.

Incumbent and new parties are expected to receive about 210 million shekels as advances ahead of the elections. Likud leads with about 46.8 million, alongside tens of millions flowing to the various factions - including those wavering in the polls.

A post on the party's youth Instagram page, which was later deleted, hinted at which MKs might get realistic spots and which senior members were pushed out.
