 Tomorrow, Monday, the Knesset plenum will convene, and for the first time since the establishment of the 19th Knesset, the ministers who received letters of dismissal - Finance Minister Yair Lapid and Justice Minister Tzipi Livni - as well as the ministers who resigned in their wake, will not sit around the government table in the center of the plenum.

It turns out that the changes were also made technically to emphasize that the Yesh Atid and Hatunu factions are no longer part of the coalition.

Note the 'holes' at the government table, where only 15 ministers (including the prime minister) remain in their seats. The Yesh Atid ministers and their party members have 'migrated' to the right, where the opposition factions are located, and the Justice Minister and members of the Movement Party have 'migrated' to the northern part of the plenary hall - also where the opposition members sit. Thus, Yair Lapid will find himself next to Eitan Cabel and Shai Piron, while Tzipi Livni will sit next to Muhammad Baraka.
