With 77.6% of the votes counted in Israel's general election, preliminary results show a significant departure from initial exit polls. This represents a notable decrease for Netanyahu's bloc compared to earlier projections.
The Likud party is securing 27 seats, followed by the 'Yash' party with 22 seats. Ultra-Orthodox parties, United Torah Judaism and Shas, are each expected to gain 7 seats. Arab parties collectively are projected to receive a record 17 seats, reflecting a high voter turnout in the Arab sector.
The vote counting process is ongoing, and the final seat allocation is still subject to change as the remaining votes are tallied. The updated map of the electoral results indicates a dynamic and closely contested election.
