  • Even hearing it, it’s hard to believe: Lieberman intends to hand Judea and Samaria over to Jordan. This must not be allowed!

    Даже услышав, в это сложно поверить: Либерман намерен отдать Иудею и Самарию Иордании. Этого нельзя допустить!

  • Yair Golan revealed this evening that he and Eisenkot will form a left-wing government with the Arab parties. That’s what this election is about: either the right—or Palestine. Only a vote for Likud will prevent Eisenkot, Golan, Lieberman, Bennett and the Arab parties from forming a left-Arab government.

    יאיר גולן חושף הערב שהוא ואיזנקוט יקימו ממשלת שמאל עם המפלגות הערביות. על זה הבחירות: זה או ימין - או פלסטין. רק הצבעה לליכוד תמנע הקמת ממשלת שמאל-ערבים של איזנקוט, גולן, ליברמן, בנט והמפלגות הערביות.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in shekels, from 1 October 2025. Spend is the sum of Meta's range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as "1M+", so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend.
