The United Torah Judaism bloc has abstained from recommending any candidate to the President to form the next government. This decision was made during consultations held with the President's office on Tuesday, as part of the process for President Yitzhak Herzog to decide who will be tasked with forming the government.

The consultations with parliamentary blocs are ongoing, with the President's Residence scheduling meetings to hear each bloc's positions and recommendations. The United Arab List announced its recommendation to task Eisenkot with forming the government. Ata Abu Mdeighem, a member of the United Arab List, stated that his party would recommend the President task the head of the Yamina party with forming the next government. He explained that the United Arab List has accepted almost all conditions set by Eisenkot prior to the elections, making them amenable to forming a government based on his leadership.
