Summarized from The Times of Israel by baba
Central Elections Committee chief Noam Sohlberg will publish the official Knesset election results on Wednesday as scheduled, despite attempts by the outgoing coalition to delay the announcement.

The results will be presented to President Isaac Herzog, who will then begin the process of forming the next government.
