A coalition-backed bill to dissolve the Knesset advanced in preliminary reading with 106 MKs voting to disband parliament, opening a path to early elections after Haredi parties protested the failure to pass yeshiva-student draft legislation. The sources reported that no election date was set and that parties were weighing September or mid-October options.
