Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is stepping up his efforts to unify the small right-wing parties and summoned the leaders of the union between the Jewish Home and the National Union to a meeting on Monday evening. Netanyahu turned to Rabbi Rafi Peretz and MK Bezalel Smotrich with an 'attempt to save the right-wing bloc' and intends to bring the two parties together with Kahane's 'power for Israel.' At this stage, however, Smotrich refuses to attend the meeting.
