Eisenkot’s Yashar party have a clear path to victory – but will have to align with Israel’s Arab-led parties

What the coverage shows

Both outlets frame Gadi Eisenkot as a potential challenge to Benjamin Netanyahu and foreground his military background. The Independent’s headline says he could topple Netanyahu and, in its extract, uniquely mentions Yashar’s path to victory and the need to align with Arab-led parties. The Hill instead presents him as Netanyahu’s opponent and focuses more generally on his long Israeli military career and role in an election cycle marked by dissatisfaction with current leadership.
