ISRAEL ELECTIONS 2026: IN LATEST POLL, NETANYAHU'S LIKUD GAINS SEAT AS OPPOSITION'S BENNETT CONTINUES DECLINE
The June 29 daily opens with the latest Haaretz poll: at the symbolic mid-term, the Israeli Jewish opposition plateaus at 58 seats, the Netanyahu bloc at 52 — neither reaches the 61-seat majority without the Arab parties, now unavoidable kingmakers. RFI devotes an Idées podcast to the Esprit magazine and its dossier 'A future to rebuild' on Palestine. The Times of Israel reports on the closure of Video Pub, Jerusalem's last gay bar, whose owner argues that 'gay-only bars are no longer necessary.' From Beirut, the NYT documents the Lebanese fracture over the deal with Israel: welcomed by some as a blow to Iran, denounced by others as a capitulation. Finally, El País announces the launch in Madrid this July of an International Forum for Palestinian Culture, championed by Spanish minister Ernest Urtasun.
