Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the centrist Yashar party, has not joined the Together alliance formed by Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid in April 2026 despite an open number-two slot on their joint list. Lapid publicly anticipated an announcement by mid-June, yet Eisenkot has instead run independently, with Yashar surging in polls to challenge or lead both Together and Likud ahead of the October 27 election. This shift reflects Eisenkot’s stronger standalone positioning among centrist and soft-right voters, his emphasis on a broad Zionist majority, and reluctance to merge amid polling gains that reduce the incentive for alliance. Bennett and Lapid’s bloc has meanwhile lost ground, highlighting the competitive dynamics and Eisenkot’s strategic preference for autonomy over consolidation.
