The Yamina Party announced on Sunday that it will not join the national unity government and will sit in the opposition.
"In light of the government's emerging composition and its policy as a left-wing government led by [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu, and in light of the prime minister's blatant contempt for Yamina and its voters, we've decided to serve the public from the opposition in the upcoming term and fight for the national camp," said a statement issued by the party.
