A former Israeli general is the main center-right challenger hoping to unseat Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the upcoming Israeli elections, NPR reported.
While global trends often show young people leaning politically left, Al Jazeera English noted that young Israelis are instead leaning to the right.
This shift among young Israelis is influenced by their views on security and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, factors that could shape the election outcome and Netanyahu's future.
The election will test whether the former general can capitalize on this rightward trend among the youth to unseat the incumbent prime minister.
