A survey conducted by the Jewish People Policy Institute JPPI revealed that the majority of Israelis lack confidence in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his government, and the Israeli military leadership.

According to the report, trust in the military has significantly decreased, with 55% of respondents expressing low confidence in its leadership.

Meanwhile, the popularity of the Israeli government continues to decline, with the survey indicating that 73% of Israelis don't trust their government, compared to only 26% who said they do.

When asked about their trust in Netanyahu, 71% of Israelis expressed "somewhat low or very low" trust in their premier, while 27% believe their trust in him is "still high or somewhat high."

The survey also revealed that 86% of Israelis are very concerned about the security situation in the occupation entity, and 73% are worried about the economic situation.

In this context, 25% of Israelis expressed a willingness to leave the entity if given the opportunity, while 63% supported the Supreme Court's ruling imposing compulsory military service on Haredi Jews.

Yedidia Stern, the head of the institute, stated that these results indicate a "deep crisis of confidence between the public and the security and political leadership," calling for a renewal of trust through early general elections.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is currently scrambling to contain backlash both domestically and internationally regarding his policies on the war on Gaza, the ceasefire deal, the situation in the North, and the escalating violence against Palestinians in the West Bank.

Nine months into the genocide in Gaza, "Israel" is yet to achieve any of its main military objectives in the Strip amid a slowly growing consensus that a prisoner exchange deal with the Resistance is the only viable exit plan left.
