In his first speech as Prime Minister, Naftali Bennett is expected to appeal directly to Israel’s haredi community, noting that although haredi parties have chosen to remain outside of the coalition, their public will be well represented, and the government will remain committed to it.

Bennett will emphasize that assistance will continue to be provided to the community in the face of the various challenges, especially on the issues of employment and housing, and stressing the promoting of new cities designated for the haredi public. Bennett will also address the Mount Meron Disaster.
