Benjamin Netanyahu will run for a new term in Israel's legislative elections, in October 2026
The current Israeli Prime Minister's party announced that Benjamin Netanyahu will run for a new term in Israel's October legislative elections.
The group wrote on Telegram that Netanyahu, 76 years old and nicknamed Bibi, “will run in the next elections and, with God's help, will win them.” The announcement comes after the doubts sown by Trump about the future of the politician who has been in charge of Israel for the longest time, more than 18 years in total since 1996.
Trump's doubts about Netanyahu's future
An ABC News journalist claims that, during a recent interview, the American president highlighted the “extraordinary career” of the Israeli prime minister and at the same time wondered if he would want to participate in a new campaign.
“I don't know,” the Republican president responded to his own question and described the issue as an “open question.” The next Israeli elections are scheduled for October 2026.
