President Isaac Herzog began coalition talks on Wednesday to decide who will form Israel's next government, as neither Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nor former military chief Gadi Eisenkot has a clear parliamentary majority. Herzog will consult with all parties through Thursday evening, with Eisenkot expected to receive slightly more recommendations than Netanyahu. The process is underway amid investigations into alleged foreign election interference and heated discussions about the role of Arab parties in government.
