During post-election consultations, Herzog met with representatives of all political parties. After their conclusion, he stated that he would announce his decision on Sunday. According to several reports, Eisenkot is the favorite to receive the mandate, but his path to the office of prime minister remains uncertain. Der Standard ↗

The support of Arab political parties plays an important role. Representatives of the United List leaned toward Eisenkot during the consultations, which increased his lead over Netanyahu. However, the opposition leader needs to secure sufficient support from other parties to form a government. hnonline.sk ↗

According to the available results, neither camp has a clear majority in parliament. Eisenkot will therefore have to negotiate with several political partners and overcome differing positions among the individual parties. Such negotiations may determine the composition of the future coalition. The Guardian ↗

At the same time, the president called on political parties to contribute to resolving the post-election situation and to prevent further elections. Herzog's Sunday decision will open formal negotiations on forming a government, with the outcome depending on the ability of either Eisenkot or Netanyahu to build a parliamentary majority. ORF ↗
