Netanyahu and Eisenkot vie for Israeli leadership as election results loom

Filed · 3 publisher pages · upstream origin unresolved

Netanyahu's bloc leads with 84.5% of votes counted, but final tally could take days. Neither group is expected to win a majority, with coalition talks ahead.

Eisenkot, former military chief, criticizes Netanyahu for security failures and calls him an 'anti-leader'. Both leaders say they're ready to form a government, but neither has a majority.

The election saw the highest turnout in decades, with Arab Israelis voting in droves. The next government will face challenges in forming a coalition and addressing concerns over international law.

Eisenkot advocates for a formal inquiry into the Oct. 7 attacks, while Netanyahu has blocked such efforts. The election results could lead to a more polarized or unified government depending on coalition negotiations.
