Gaza Residents Watch Israel Election, Hoping to Unseat Netanyahu as Airstrikes Continue

Residents in Khan Younis said they hoped a change in Israeli leadership would ease fighting and help advance a U.S.-backed Gaza plan.

  • In the southern Gaza Strip, residents of Khan Younis are closely following Israel's election results, hoping that anyone other than Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu forms the next government.
  • Mohammed Abed, a resident near Nasser Hospital, expressed deep pessimism regarding the outcome, stating that major candidates hold "almost similar" policies that will not dramatically change the situation.
  • Resident Ayman Ahmed noted that he supports Gadi Eisenkot, citing his preference for President Donald Trump's road map for Gaza and describing the election as a choice between "the lesser of two evils."

  • Only Yair Golan of the Democrats party spoke in favor of a two-state solution, as the future of Gaza was barely an issue in the broader election campaign.
