United Torah Judaism has yet to decide on its recommendation for prime minister

In depth

United Torah Judaism leaders met ahead of the round of recommendations for president, with Yaakov Asher, Yitzhak Goldknopf and Meir Porush taking part. According to Israel Hayom, no final decision was reached at the meeting, and the members will convene again toward the end of the week after receiving the decision of their spiritual leaders.

According to Walla and Kan News, the faction is considering not recommending a candidate for forming the government. According to Channel 14, assessments are growing that United Torah Judaism will not recommend any of the candidates.

According to Behadrei Haredim, Netanyahu conveyed a message to the faction saying he is prepared to go very far on the draft law. According to the same outlet, Porush and Asher lean toward recommending the prime minister, while Goldknopf maintains a qualified position.
