Former Yisrael Beiteinu member Orly Levy-Abekasis announced on Tuesday she will create her own party, called Gesher [Bridge] and run during the upcoming April elections.

Daughter of noted Israeli politician David Levy, Levy-Abekasis is a former model and television presenter with a long record of Knesset activity, especially in social and welfare issues.

Slamming Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who told a Likud voter she's boring him when she told him there's no hospital in her town, Levy-Abekasis said that "now is a time to ensure that any government to be created here after the elections will not forget social issues, even if it finds them boring...now is the time to build a bridge."
