Opposition parties are strategizing to oust Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana before a government is formed, a move requiring support from Arab parties. Senior figures from Gadi Eisenkot, Avigdor Liberman, and Naftali Bennett's parties are discussing this and forming a potential center-right alliance. The election results have not provided a clear majority for either bloc, leaving Arab parties in a pivotal position. President Isaac Herzog is set to begin coalition consultations next week.
