Officials: Knesset could disperse next week

Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin said following talks with faction leaders that he estimates the Meretz and Labor parties' bill proposals, which call for the dispersal of the 18th Knesset, will be put up for a vote on Monday.

The government is expected to back the proposed bills, and officials in the Coalition say the legislation could be passed within a couple of days of the initial vote. (Moran Azulay)
