As vote counting continues in Israel's Knesset elections, updated results after 77% of ballots have been tallied show the Likud party remaining the largest with 27 seats. The Yesh Atid party, led by Gadi Eisenkot, is second with 22 seats, followed by the National Unity party with 12. The bloc supporting Prime Minister Netanyahu currently stands at 54 seats, while the "change bloc" has 49. Arab parties collectively hold 17 seats. The gap between the two main blocs is now only five seats, but neither has yet reached the 61 seats needed for a majority in the Knesset.
Other seat allocations include the Joint List with 11 seats and Ra'am with six. United Torah Judaism, Shas, Yisrael Beiteinu, and Otzma Yehudit each have seven seats, while Religious Zionism and Zehut have six. The Central Elections Committee reported that as of 12:30 PM, 10,156 polling stations had reported, with 4,421,561 voters participating. The counting process is ongoing, and results are subject to change as more ballots are processed and verified.
Officials emphasized that these are only partial results. The count of double envelopes, typically cast by soldiers and those abroad, has not yet been included. Therefore, significant shifts in seat distribution and the bloc configurations are still expected before the final results are announced.
