They are parallel developments in his management of the conflict's political and diplomatic dimensions."
"The new event describes Netanyahu distancing himself from far-right allies to form a broader coalition. This political maneuver is a direct response to the internal coalition friction highlighted in event 10, where far-right Minister Ben-Gvir opposed the Lebanon ceasefire agreement, creating a rift that necessitates Netanyahu's shift in political alignment."
