Although the Arab parties won 19 of the 120 seats and recommended that Gadi Eisenkot be tasked with forming a government, a move backed by 67 lawmakers, Eisenkot has ruled out including them in his government. Among the 101 seats effectively in play in coalition negotiations, Benjamin Netanyahu’s bloc leads Eisenkot’s with 53 seats to 48. The 13 seats held by Shas and United Torah Judaism could give Eisenkot a majority of 61, but that would spark a dispute over exempting yeshiva students from military service. Meanwhile, Jewish parties broadly oppose the participation of Arab parties in the government. Eisenkot has 28 days to form a government, with the option of a two-week extension. The concessions needed to build a coalition will affect his ability to manage issues involving Gaza and the West Bank, relations with Washington, and regional understandings.
