Eisenkot announces his intention to establish an "Israeli conscription government" In his first announcement Gadi Eisenkot announced his intention to form a government which he defined as an "Israeli conscription government", considering that the election results reflect the rejection of the October 7 government and the parties rejecting compulsory conscription. His words raise questions about the shape of the next coalition, in light of the exclusion of Arab parties and religious parties that deny military service, and the difficulty of recruiting 61 mandates without additional alliances, which opens the door to the possibility of establishing a national unity government with the Likud.
