מרד בש"ס? קריאות להדחת דרעי

הערכה

Shas's slide to seven seats, down four from the last election, has opened a direct challenge to Aryeh Deri's leadership from inside the party. The numbers are stark enough that loyalty to a longtime chairman is no longer automatic. Watch whether the internal calls harden into an organized faction or stay as background noise. If Deri survives, he will need a concrete recovery plan, not just appeals to history. If he does not, the party's next move will reshape its coalition leverage.
