Following the completion of vote counting, Israeli President Isaac Herzog is set to begin consultations with party factions next week. After these discussions, he will decide which political leader will receive the 28-day mandate to attempt to form a government. If the first candidate fails to establish a government, Herzog has the option to grant the mandate to a second nominee or declare that forming a government is not feasible.
The vote counting process, which commenced overnight, is expected to continue until Thursday or Friday due to a large number of double envelopes. Regardless of the options available to the bloc leaders, the process of forming the next government, or at least attempting to do so, will begin after the final results are published.
