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.
