Minority Govt at Risk
The Change bloc is moving to take control of the Knesset and its speakership, while attention is focused on President Isaac Herzog as consultations begin on whom to recommend to form the next government. Gadi Eisenkot is tipped to be asked to form one with the support of Arab parties, despite his slim chances of success. Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking to prevent a minority government from taking shape, while ultra-Orthodox parties could give Eisenkot the votes needed to reach a 61-seat majority. Netanyahu, meanwhile, would rather go to new elections than form a unity government. The newspaper reported that a security escalation in the region could disrupt these arrangements and lead the parties to postpone their political contest.
