Netanyahu's Bloc Holds Lead in Israeli Election, Coalition Talks Begin

Israeli voters elected a parliament where Netanyahu's bloc leads, but no majority is expected. Netanyahu faces coalition negotiations to remain in power. Turnout reached a record high.

Netanyahu's pro-government bloc holds a lead with nearly 99% of votes counted, according to Deutsche Welle. However, neither Netanyahu's bloc nor its anti-Netanyahu counterpart is expected to secure a parliamentary majority. The election results have left Netanyahu in a position where his continued leadership depends on forming a coalition with rival parties. Public Radio of Armenia reported that nearly 86% of votes were tallied, with turnout at a record high. The election results have not produced a clear majority for either bloc, leaving the path to the next government uncertain.
