Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

The Likud faction met with Israel's President Yitzhak Herzog at the President's Residence on Thursday, November 5th, to recommend Member of Knesset Benjamin Netanyahu as the candidate to form the next government. The Likud delegation included Minister Miri Regev, Minister Yoav Kisch, and MK Ofir Katz, alongside Taliq Gwili and Aliza Barashi. The recommendation follows the general elections held on March 23rd, which saw the Likud party emerge as the largest party. Netanyahu, as the leader of the largest party, is typically tasked with forming a coalition government. The process involves consultations with all parties represented in the Knesset, after which the President formally tasks a Knesset member with the responsibility of forming a government. The designated member then has a set period to negotiate and secure a majority coalition in the Knesset.
