  "summary": "The leader of Israel's Democrats party, Yair Golan, has suggested that the Arab-led Ra'am party could be part of the next government coalition. Speaking to Channel 12, Golan stated that Ra'am leader Mansour Abbas could be included in the coalition, noting that former Prime Minister Netanyahu had previously expressed willingness to negotiate with Abbas. Golan emphasized that the opposition bloc, which includes Arab-led parties, holds 67 seats compared to Netanyahu's 53, suggesting that forming a new government with these parties is a viable option.",
