Israeli President Yitzhak Herzog summarized the results of the elections held in the country: We must do everything possible, especially after yesterday's events, to avoid new elections. Bloc led by Netanyahu's Likud party: 53 seats. Bloc led by Eisenkot's Ishar Party: 48 seats. Arab parties: 19 seats. No party won the 61 seats needed to form a government. This leads to an impasse and several possible scenarios, among which the most likely outcome is the absence of an established government. Most experts in the region expect the negotiations to continue to fail as the risks outweigh the potential benefits for both sides, with repeat elections set for April 2027. Throughout this process, Benjamin Netanyahu remained acting prime minister.
