Eisenkot Set to Receive Mandate to Form Government Amidst Complex Options

President Isaac Herzog will task Gadi Eisenkot with forming Israel's next government on Sunday, after Eisenkot received 67 recommendations compared to Benjamin Netanyahu's 46. Eisenkot will first attempt to form a coalition with the "Change Bloc" parties, but faces significant challenges, including potential disagreements with Haredi and Arab parties over conscription and political stances. An alternative unity government with Likud seems unlikely, and if Eisenkot fails, Netanyahu may receive the mandate, or Israel could head to new elections.

App Allegedly Tracked Voters for Ra'am Party, Complaint Filed

The "Choosing Life" forum for bereaved families and terror victims filed a complaint with the Shin Bet alleging that the Ra'am party used an app called "Aswatcom" to track voters and manage election operations. The app, downloaded over 500 times, reportedly provided real-time polling station data and may have involved individuals affiliated with the Palestinian Authority in its development. The forum is demanding a criminal investigation into the app's origins, usage, and data handling, with copies of the complaint sent to the Police Commissioner and the Central Elections Committee chairman.
