- Netanyahu’s bloc lost its parliamentary majority, with the result leaving Israel’s election deadlocked over how a government can be formed.
- Arab parties secured a record number of seats, while Eisenkot vowed to do his utmost to form a Zionist government as the deadlock persisted.
Why it matters: Netanyahu loses his bloc’s majority while Arab parties secure a record number of seats, so the vote has not resolved who forms government. Eisenkot’s vow to do his utmost to form a Zionist government adds a prospective builder, but the election remains deadlocked.
