Israeli actions at the Temple Mount have triggered backlash from Muslim and Arab states, raising stakes for Netanyahu’s political future. The odds of Netanyahu stepping down by June 30 sit at 6% YES, unchanged from last week.

The market’s term structure signals potential volatility. The 1% YES for April 30 is barely alive, but the jump to 6% by June 30 suggests traders expect a catalyst in the coming weeks. Explore the Netanyahu out by April 30 market. The gap between those two numbers implies traders see Temple Mount backlash as a possible trigger for coalition fractures, particularly if National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir’s actions draw increased international pressure.

Trading volume is moderate. Daily USDC traded is $7,718, with $10,057 in order book depth required to move the June 30 market five points. The largest recent price move was a 1-point drop, which points to a thin market where a single large trade could shift the price meaningfully.

The political risk for Netanyahu is real. Backlash could push coalition partners to reconsider their support, especially if diplomatic fallout follows. A YES share at 6¢ pays $1 if Netanyahu is out by June 30, a 16.67x return. Traders buying at this price are betting that diplomatic strain converts into actual political instability within weeks.

Watch for responses from coalition partners and international diplomats. Any shift in Knesset dynamics or a significant diplomatic incident could move these markets. Benny Gantz and Gideon Sa’ar are the key figures to monitor, since their reactions would be the clearest signal of whether Netanyahu’s coalition support is weakening.
