• Benjamin Netanyahu was sworn in for his third stint as Prime Minister of Israel Thursday following the country’s fifth election in less than four years.
• Netanyahu is forming what experts say could be the most right-wing government in Israel’s history. His Likud Party formed a governing coalition with several ultranationalist, religious Zionist parties previously on the fringes of the Israeli political system.
• The new term as prime minister will be Netanyahu’s sixth in total. He’s already Israel’s longest-serving prime minister ever, having previously held the post from 1996 to 1999 and from 2009 to 2021.
