Poll: Likud gains a seat, Yashar surges past Bennett-Lapid as Beyachad bleeds

A survey showed Likud climbing to 22 seats while Bennett-Lapid's Beyachad continued its sharp decline, losing roughly 10 seats over two months down to 18. Eisenkot's Yashar surged 9 seats since the Beyachad merger to reach 21. The coalition strengthened to 50 seats versus 60 for the opposition, and 63% of respondents said Netanyahu should always act in Israel's interests 'even if it conflicts with requests from U.S. President Donald Trump.'
