The coalition government in Israel has pulled all its sponsored bills from the Knesset agenda, effectively freezing legislative activity due to a lack of majority support. This move follows ongoing disputes with ultra-Orthodox parties over the stalled military draft exemption law for yeshiva students, leaving the coalition with only 60 out of 120 seats. The legislative standstill comes just days into the winter session and has drawn criticism from opposition leaders, who argue the government has lost its ability to govern.

While coalition bills are on hold, opposition proposals remain on the agenda, including a controversial measure to apply Israeli sovereignty to the West Bank. Coalition lawmakers cited the visit of United States Vice President JD Vance as a reason for postponing votes, but opposition members insist the real issue is the coalition's lack of majority. The situation is further complicated by threats from far-right parties to withdraw support if their legislative priorities are not advanced, deepening the political deadlock.
