President Isaac Herzog will commence consultations with all parties elected to the Knesset on Wednesday, marking the beginning of the process to form a new government. The Director-General of the President's Residence, Eyal Shviki, sent official invitations to party representatives on Sunday, formally notifying them of the upcoming meetings.

Shviki stated that the President's Residence is open to all factions and that Herzog expects representatives to arrive with open minds, willing to listen and share ideas to prevent further elections. He emphasized that the consultations will be conducted in a state-level, respectful, and substantive manner, expressing hope that the democratic process will be completed properly for the benefit of Israel.
