Together (Hebrew: ביחד, romanized: b'yaḥad) is an Israeli political alliance founded in April 2026 by former prime ministers Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid and their parties Bennett 2026 and Yesh Atid. The alliance will run in the 2026 Israeli legislative election with Bennett as its leader.
In the 2021 Israeli legislative election, Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid ran as leaders of Yamina and Yesh Atid, respectively. Following the election, the two parties helped form a unity government in which Bennett and Lapid rotated the position of prime minister. The government collapsed the following year, with Bennett retiring from politics and the outgoing government being replaced following the 2022 Israeli legislative election by a coalition led by Likud's Benjamin Netanyahu.
In April 2025, Bennett announced the creation of a new political party, Bennett 2026, to contest the 2026 Israeli legislative election. In late 2025 and early 2026, Israeli media reported negotiations for a potential run between Bennett 2026, Yesh Atid, Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar party, and Yisrael Beiteinu.
On 26 April 2026, Yesh Atid and Bennett 2026 announced the formation of Together, with the intention of contesting the 2026 election jointly, led by Bennett. The two parties invited Yashar to join the alliance.
