Naftali Bennett sworn in as Prime Minister of Israel.

The era of Netanyahu has come to an end.
Netanyahu had served as Prime Minister from 2009 to 2021, and from 1996 to 1999. Netanyahu was the longest-serving Israeli Prime Minister in history.
Naftali Bennet was born and raised in Haifa, son of immigrants from the United States. Bennett served in Sayeret Matkal and Maglan special forces of the IDF.

Bennett has previously served as Minister of Defense, as well as a few other positions within the Israeli gov't.
The Bennett x Lapid gov't will be a rotational gov't, meaning after 2 years, Yair Lapid will replace him.

Before politics, Lapid was an author, TV presenter and news anchor. He's the founder of the Yesh Atid party and has served various roles in the Israeli Knesset.
Within the first 30-90 days of the new gov't, it has promised to pass various laws, including establishing a state commission of inquiry into the Mount Meron disaster, major reforms in the connection between the state and Judaism, a 2 term limit on Prime Ministers, and passing --
of the recruitment law, which regulates recruitment of ultra-orthodox adults. (ht @imvexomous)
