Benjamin Netanyahu was sworn into office on December 29, taking the helm of the most right-wing and religiously conservative government in Israel’s history and vowing to enact policies that could cause domestic and regional turmoil and alienate the country’s closest allies.

Netanyahu took the oath of office moments after parliament passed a vote of confidence in his new government.

His return marks his sixth term in office, continuing his more than decade-long dominance over Israeli politics.
