Knesset swears in fourth Netanyahu government
Knesset approved a fourth Government led by Benjamin Netanyahu.
After last-minute postponement, Israel’s parliament voted 61-59 in favour of swearing in Israel’s 34th government.
The vote took place on Thursday evening at 9 pm, two hours after the original scheduled time.
The cause for the delay was due to the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, working to finish the appointing of ministers from within his own party, Likud.
