İsrail ordusunda 41 yıl görev yapan eski Genelkurmay Başkanı Gadi Eisenkot, İsrail'in Gazze Şeridi'ne saldırılarını başlattığı dönemde kurulan "Savaş Kabinesinde" yer alsa da seçimlerde Başbakan Binyamin Netanyahu'yu iktidardan etmeyi hedefliyor.

W Izraelu rozpoczęły się wybory parlamentarne, w których zmierzą się bloki obecnego premiera Benjamina Netanjahu i opozycyjny - Gadiego Eisenkota . W kwestiach o największym znaczeniu stanowiska głównych rywali są jednak zbliżone. "Financial Times" podał, że co najmniej 67 tysięcy Izraelczyków wróciło z zagranicy, by oddać głos.

PORTRAIT - Le parti de l’ex-chef d’état-major de l’armée israélienne est donné par les sondages comme le principal adversaire de Benyamin Netanyahou. Moins charismatique que le chef du Likoud, il compte sur sa réputation d’intégrité et son image d’homme à poigne pour tenter de convaincre.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s hold on power is at stake in Israel’s elections, with centrist rivals promising to usher in a new era.

À la veille des élections législatives en Israël, on s’interroge sur les deux protagonistes de ce scrutin, l’indéboulonnable Benjamin Netanyahu et l’ancien chef d’état-major, Gadi Eisenkot.

De grootste uitdager van Benjamin Netanyahu bij de verkiezingen in Israël is Gadi Eisenkot. De opiniepeilingen voorspellen een nek-aan-nekrace. Wie is de gewezen legerchef die het opneemt tegen 'King Bibi'? En mogen de Palestijnen verandering van hem verwachten?

Gadi Eisenkot är soldaten som blev Israels överbefälhavare. Nu har han pensionerat sig från militären – och utmanar Benjamin Netanyahu om premiärministerposten.

À la veille des élections législatives en Israël, Gadi Eisenkot promet de rassembler un pays profondément divisé. L’ancien chef d’état-major, devenu le principal rival de Benjamin Netanyahu, place l’unité nationale au cœur de son discours et s’adresse aussi aux électeurs du Likoud. Les derniers sondages annoncent un rapport de force serré entre les deux bloc

L’ancien chef d’état-major a bâti sa campagne autour d’une image rassurante de droiture et de sérieux. Mais il n’est pas à l’abri d’un éparpillement des voix entre les listes des opposants au premier ministre, Benyamin Nétanyahou.

L’ancien chef d’état-major est aujourd’hui à la tête de Yashar !, premier parti d’opposition pour les élections du 27 octobre. Entré en politique en 2022, il a pris le contrepied de la politique populiste et radicale du premier ministre sortant.

İsrail'de yarın düzenlenecek genel seçim öncesi muhalif lider Gadi Eisenkot, Başbakan Binyamin Netanyahu hakkında uyarılarda bulunarak, "İktidarda kalmak için hiçbir şeyden geri durmayacak; ne yalandan ne de aşırı tedbirlerden." dedi.

Dernière ligne droite avant les élections législatives en Israël. Le scrutin se déroule ce mardi 27 octobre et le pays est divisé entre les partisans de Benyamin Netanyahu et ses opposants. Tout au long d'une campagne féroce, des affiches à son effigie ont été placardées à travers le pays, portant le slogan « Soit la droite, soit la Palestine ». Dimanche soi

Polls have shown Benjamin Netanyahu and Gadi Eisenkot to be neck and neck as Israel heads into a consequential election.

Gadi Eisenkot, Benjamin Netanyahu’s rival in Israel’s upcoming election, held his final campaign rally on Sunday.

Mardi prochain se tiennent des élections législatives déterminantes pour l'histoire d'Israël. Face au Premier ministre sortant Benyamin Nétanyahou, un homme entend bien jouer les trouble-fêtes : Gadi Eisenkot, un militaire de carrière récemment entré en politique.

Hij zou zomaar eens de nieuwe premier van Israël kunnen worden, Gadi Eisenkot. Ondanks dat zijn partij Yashar pas een jaar oud is, is hij de grote uitdager van de zittende premier Netanyahu, met wie Eisenkot al maandenlang in een nek-aan-nekrace verkeert. Volgens de laatste peilingen verkiezen de Israëliërs hem nu boven Netanyahu. De twee zijn geen onbekende

As Israel prepares to vote, Gadi Eisenkot is leveraging his Moroccan heritage in Likud strongholds such as Sderot. From historical divides to October 7, identity and trauma are redefining the city's political loyalties.

Next Tuesday, Israelis choose between a prime minister who has led them for much of the last two decades - and a former army chief who has been in politics for less than four years.

Mr. Eisenkot, an ex-military chief leading in the polls, calls the Israeli prime minister an “anti-leader.” But his low-key campaigning style is worrying supporters.
